Call the Attendance Line 425-385-7305
Regular school attendance is closely related to school success. State law requires that children attend school unless they are ill. If children are ill, parents are asked to contact the school. Please follow these guidelines in regard to attendance: Please call the school at (425) 385-7305 to report your child's absence and leave a message on our 24-hour voice mail. When your child returns to school after an absence, send a written excuse. If no contact is made with the school, your child is considered legally unexcused in the attendance record. This school's attendance policy is in compliance with the Everett School District attendance policy and Washington State Compulsory Attendance law. In addition, effective July 1995 the Becca bill, passed by the legislature, requires schools to file a petition with juvenile court if all actions are not successful in reducing or eliminating the absence problem.
Early DismissalEarly dismissals and late arrivals should be avoided whenever possible; however, we understand it is sometimes necessary to attend doctor or dental appointments during the school day. Parents must come to the office when picking children up during the day. Your child will be called from class by a school staff member. For the protection of all students, it will be necessary for parents to sign their children in and out of the office when children are leaving school early or arriving late. If you bring your child back the same day, you will need to sign back in through the office before going back to class.
