This is a friendly reminder regarding student absences: in order for student absences to be excused, parents/guardians must send in a handwritten note, email bbrown@leadhillschools.net, or send a Class Dojo message to the student’s teacher to report the student’s absence. A professional note from a doctor, dentist, therapist, etc. will also be accepted. Doctor’s excuses can be faxed to 870-436-6827. Attendance notes must be turned into the K-12 Office within 5 days of the student’s absence - notes will not be valid after this 5 day grace period expires. This information can be found on pages 10-11 in the Student Handbooks: STD 3-A.9.
