Attendance

Georgia Bright from the Start Pre-K guidelines state "Chronic tardiness is defined as late arrival or early departure more than two days per month without medical or other reasonal explanation. Chronic tardiness or absenteeism may also be defined by an established regular attendance pattern; e.g. if a child is late every Monday or absent every Tuesday or leaves early every Friday." Children who are chronically tardy or absent after intervention must be disenrolled. Arriving after 8:01 am is tardy and leaving before 2:30 pm is an early departure. If you have extending circumstances or concerns on this matter, please contact our resource coordinator, Ms. Kim. (pager #: 464-6638 e-mail: kimcoxon@childrensfriend.com)
