Attendance

Attendance Line: 403-777-6650  ext.1

In the event of student absence, the parent/guardian is asked to call the school and leave a message. Please leave the following information: 

  • name of student(s)
  • grade(s)
  • teacher(s)
  • reason for absence or lateness length of absence if known  

Attendance will be taken each morning and afternoon, and in cases where the parent/guardian has not informed the school, every effort will be made to contact the parent/guardian to verify the absence.

Students are expected to arrive at school on time. Continued late arrivals will be reported to parents. Parents are asked to help their child(ren) be on time. 

Children arriving late should enter via the front door. Parents should only enter the school through the main front doors.

Please ensure the school has a complete list of all emergency contacts and authorized guardians for your child. To make changes or to ensure we have your most current contact information, please contact our office.

Phone In for Attendance / Safety

We attempt to contact parents of children who do not arrive at school for morning or afternoon classes if we have not been notified in advance. If your child is going to be away from school for any reason, please call the school attendance line to leave a message or leave a message at the main office in advance of the absence.
