Monarch K-8
Attendance

School Attendance Line: 303-245-5615

It is the responsibility of the parents to call the school when their student will be absent from school. We ask that you make every effort to call the attendance line by 9:00 A.M. We will call home on all elementary students as soon as possible. Middle Level Students will have calls made home, time permitting. Calling the absence in will help us maintain a safe environment for your student here at Monarch K-8 School. The fewer calls that we have to make home, the more likely we are to get the one made that a child might be missing. While this has never happened to a Monarch K-8 student we believe that this policy would help in finding your student in a timely manner if they should not arrive at school for any reason.

Request for Prearranged Absence:

A form should be picked up one week before leaving on vacation. The students will ask each teacher to fill our her/his section. Once the sheet is complete and prior to the absence, the student must return the sheet to Mrs. Wharton in the office. She will copy the sheet; a copy will be given to the student and Mrs. Wharton will keep a copy.

The student must understand that she/he is responsible for all assignments missed. Students should make arrangements with their teachers in advance regarding their make-up work. All make-up work is due one week from the date of return to school. As a way to help your child complete all work , we ask that the parent initial the students sheet as each assignment is completed. As each assignment is turned in, teachers will initial that they have received the assignment.
