HIGHLIGHTS

• All grade levels are subject to the compulsory attendance requirements.
• Parents have 48 hours to report absences through Family Access, attendance email address, phone call, parent note, or doctor's note.
• If a student misses more than four consecutive days because of a personal illness, upon return to school, the student must bring a statement from a health care provider verifying the student’s extended absence

When a student ages 6-18 incurs unexcused absences for three or more days or parts of days within a four-week period, the school will send a notice to the student’s parent, as required by law, to remind the parent that it is the parent’s duty to monitor the student’s attendance and to require the student to come to school. Please refer to the DSISD Student Handbook for complete information. Contact the Campus Attendance Clerk for additional questions.
