DAILY ATTENDANCE:
China Spring Intermediate has set a goal to achieve 97% or higher attendance every day. We will be striving for 97% attendance every week this year!
Our attendance took a pretty big dip this week, but we have one more week to go. Let’s make it our highest attendance week of the year!
Our average attendance this week was 94.51%.
ATTENDANCE REMINDERS:
90% Law ~ The state of Texas requires students to be present 90% of the school year in order to receive credit for their current grade level.
Daily attendance ~ Attendance is taken every day at 9:30AM. Your student must be on campus at this time to be counted present for the day.
When absent ~ Only 4 days total per semester can be excused by a PARENT NOTE (parent signed excuse). For all absences exceeding 4, a doctor's note or other formal documentation is required.
All excuse notes must be turned in to the Front Office within 3 school days of the student’s absence.
If your child will not be at school, please let our attendance clerk, Mrs. Fulton, know at afulton@chinaspringisd.net
Attendance tracking looks at whole and partial day absences. Partial day absences include arriving at school late or leaving early without a medical excuse or one of the four parent notes for the semester.
