Your parent(s) or guardian(s) should notify the Secretary of Attendance (303.761.1266) of your absence by 9:00 a.m. on the day in which it occurs. Failure to do so will result in a call from the Secretary of Attendance. A potential result of a student being out of class without a call from their parent/guardian would be the absence being marked as “unexcused” in each of the student’s courses for the day.

If you won't make it to school by the time the bell rings, please check in with the Secretary of Attendance for a tardy slip. Your parent or guardian will need to call and let us know why you're running late. If we don't hear from them, it'll count as an "unexcused tardy" and you'll have to serve detention.

Your parent(s) or guardian(s) will need to call the Secretary of Attendance (303.761.1266) to give advance notice that you'll need to leave early.

We really encourage parents/guardians to avoid scheduling family trips or vacations that would result in you, the student, missing school. However, if you need to be absent for 4 or more days, please come collect an "Extended Absence" form from the Office of Student Conduct and Attendance.

OSCA will review the records of any student who misses an individual class 7 times or is absent from  30 total classes (6 full days of school) during a particular trimester.  Consequences for excessive absences may include attending a Parent-Assistant Principal conference and being placed on an Attendance Contract. 

"Truancy" is the term we use for students who:

• come to school but do not report to class
• leave school without notifying the Secretary of Attendance
• leave class without permission
• do not report to a location they asked for permission to report to.

Truancy will result in immediate notification of the student’s parent or guardian, and the student will be referred to the Dean of Student for further action.

We will only be allowing virtual attendance if the school has called a distance learning day for inclement weather.

Yes, as long as you and your parent or guardian have completed the electronic permission form. Please remember, though, that this is a privilege and not a right -- it can be taken away!
