Student Attendance Binder
If a child is absent, it should be documented before the end of the Preschool day (preferably around 10am). If a parent/guardian calls, texts, or gives verbal notification of an absence, make sure that you note the reason and that the Center was notified. If a parent requests an extra day, extended care, or notifies you of an absence greater than two weeks before the absence date, please document it in the binder, but remind the parent guardian that these changes MUST have Director approval. Please notify the Director of these requests so that follow up about determination can be made. Also, if a child has missed three days in a row and has not contacted the center by the third day, notify the Director or Administration so that they can reach out to the family.
This binder also includes a late pick-up log. Any child picked up more than 5 minutes later than their contracted time should be documented in the section at the back of the Attendance Binder.
