If
your child will be absent or late, please contact the school. Additionally, if a student needs to leave early for an
appointment, please send a note to your child’s teacher that morning with the
details thus eliminating the need for the office to have to call into the
classroom and disrupt the class. Where possible, arrangements should be made
ahead of time.
When
your child will be absent from school, please take a moment to call to advise
us of the absence by calling the school at 905-881-3360.
If you need to call before the school day begins we have an answering machine available
between 4:00 pm and 8:30 am to take your message. Please make sure you speak
slowly and clearly, providing:
- your child’s name,
- child’s teacher,
- and details of the absence.
- A call is required each day of the absence. This is part of the YRDSB Safe Arrival Program.
If
we do not receive a call, or if we cannot contact a parent or one of the
emergency contacts listed, Board policy is for the school to notify York Region
Police.
Please remember
to call the school if your child will be late or absent; especially in the
event that your child will be absent before and after any holiday.
