Attendance 'K 1 Rosemary Cabrera Girls' Attendance Familiar to most students is the following routine of the attendance office. lf the pupil has been absent from school, he is to bring a note from the parents when he returns. This note should state when and why the pupil was not in school. The pupil takes this note to the attendance office and an absence admission slip is issued. It is marked so each teacher may check whether the pupil is excused or unexcused. This slip is signed by the homeroom teacher as well as each class teacher. If the pupil IS late for school, he reports directly to the attendance office, and he is issued a tardy slip before being admitted to classes. lf a child becomes ill during class, he secures a note from that teacher to the attendance office. In some cases the child may be excused to go home, or he may lie down in the room pro- vided. If an emergency arises, the parent is contacted and asked to come for the child. If it is necessary for a pupil td be away from school for some reason other than illness, a note should be brought stating when the absence will occur and why. A form, especial'ly provided for this, is given to the pupil, he takes this to each teacher who may or may not O.K. his absence. This will depend upon his grades and whether the teacher feels he can miss the work. All work missed must be made up at the discretion of the teacher. Make-up work is the student's responsibility. r PQ' W i Paul W. Cauffuel Boys' Attendance 1 Cavffie . fom D .3 receiveS Counsellng l Eddy Gam' Mrs. Cabrera gives Xiomara Alfonso her tardy slip
