Note:  Due to the high volume of calls, we are unable to return confirmation requests.

Students arriving late to first period MUST have medical documentation to excuse the tardy.  Parent notes or calls are not accepted to excuse a tardy to 1st period.

Students leaving campus for any reason without being checked out through the attendance office will be reported as truant.

Returning to School during school hours:  Upon the student’s return to school on the same day, he/she must sign in at the Attendance Department, and pick up a Re-Admit slip in order to obtain credit for his/her remaining classes.  You may send your student with a note or call the 24-Hour line at 951-695-4205 to clear your students late arrival. Absences that have not been verified by a parent that are over 14 days will need medical documentation to excuse.   Please note: Medical documentation is needed to clear a tardy to 1st period.
