Report Absence

Please call the office if your child is sick or away

CALL (650): 856-0877 or E-mail the School Office (Maria or Sharon) BEFORE 8:00 AM, so that we are able to mark your child properly ‘Absent’.

ABSENCES

State Law requires that all absences be verified by a note or telephone call from a parent to the school. For best results, please telephone the school early in the morning on the first day of an illness or other absence at 856-0877.

Please keep your child at home until he or she is completely recovered from an illness and able to participate in school activities. Please send your child to school if he/she is healthy enough to attend school. Avoid unnecessary absences that disrupt your child’s learning.
