- Law enforcement order or court subpoena via a subpoena document.
- Death of a family member via a death certificate, funeral program, obituary, etc.
- Traffic accident that directly involved the student via an accident report.
- College visits for Junior and Seniors only. 2 days per year via official document.
All excuses must be submitted via the Attendance Google Form within 5 school days of the student returning to school. After this date notes will NOT be accepted, and the absence will be recorded as unexcused.
***All excuse notes must include the following:
- Date
- Student ID
