Your Child's Success Begins with Attendance!
As a parent/guardian, you are in the best position to help your children understand the benefits of regular attendance.
You can help in the following ways:
- Tell your children it is important to get to school every day and be on time so they can learn more.
- If your child makes excuses to stay home from school, take the time to listen to their concerns-we are here to help you and your child.
- Post the school calendar, and plan your vacations and appointments outside of school time.
- Monitor your child's attendance through Klein ISD's Family Access (Skyward).
- Report absences in a timely manner using Skyward Family Access or send a written note within 5 days of the absent date
Good attendance is of prime importance for the educational development of each student. A student should not be absent unless it is absolutely necessary. Any student who is absent more than 9 (nine) days per semester in a high school credit course or more than 18 (eighteen) days in a school year in an intermediate school course will have his/her attendance record reviewed by the campus attendance committee to determine if extenuating circumstances exist.
It is mandatory that written notes be submitted or enter the absence on Skyward Family Access Portal to the Attendance Office within 5 (five) school days of the absence. If the Attendance Office does not receive a Skyward parent notification or signed, written documentation from the parent or a physician's office within 5 (five) school days of the absence, the absence will remain unexcused.
With regard to unexcused absences, a student commits an offense if the student is absent for 10 (ten) or more days or parts of days within a six-month period or 3 (three) or more days or parts of days in a four-week period.
