Absences
The procedure for
absences at Rogers Middle School is different from elementary school.
If your child is absent, please write a note with the reason for the
absence and have your child bring it to the Attendance Office in the
Main Office before school begins. Make sure she/he gets to school ten
minutes earlier than normal to get the readmit. A student also
needs a readmit, if he/she arrived late or left early for an
appointment.
The
readmit is a form which the student carries from class to class
to show each of his/her teachers that the absence was excused. The student
will get each teacher's signature as the day goes on.
In
science class when the student presents the readmit to the teacher:
• The student
will then receive the missed work.
• The student
must also ask her/his study buddy for any other work that was missed.
•
It is the responsibility of the student to ask what work was collected
during his/her absence and hand it in immediately.
• If a student needs additional time to complete the missed work
due to a serious illness, the student must talk to the teacher after
class or after school on Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday.
If
a student comes to class without a readmit, the student will
immediately be sent to the attendance office to clear the absence. The
student will receive an unexcused tardy for the time used to
get the readmit during class time.
