Fletcher Elementary Attendance
ATTENDANCE MATTERS!
Although we want students to be in school each day for class, we know that absences will happen. It is important that parents report their student's absence within 24 hours.
California Ed Code requires every child
between the ages of 6 and 18 years to
attend school every day. Studies show
that student attendance increases student achievement.
Parents/guardians are responsible for
their child’s school attendance and
must notify the school if their child is not
in school and why.
A student will be excused from school
when the absence is due to:
• Personal illness or injury
• Having medical, dental, optometric or
chiropractic services rendered
• Attending the funeral service of an
immediate family member; one day if
the service is in California and three
days if outside of California
Other excused reasons include a court appearance, attendance at a funeral service, or observance of a religious holiday or
ceremony. All other absences will be unexcused.
Absences can be reported via our online option or through phone or email. Please let us know if you have any questions and thank you for your support.
