Absence Request
Good attendance is critical for student success at WHES. All absences will be coded unexcused unless an email or a written note from the parent/guardian is received. State law allows absences to be excused for the following reasons: Illness or Injury, Death in the Immediate Family, Medical or Dental Appointments, Court or Administrative Proceedings, Religious Observance and Educational Opportunity. For Educational Opportunity absences, your request must be submitted for consideration five (5) days prior to the absence. Please contact your teacher or our front office for the Educational Opportunity form. All other absences are coded as unlawful. Absences for personal trips are not excused according to state guidelines. In order to be considered in attendance, a student must be present at least one-half of the school day. At the elementary level more than ten (10) absences a semester or twenty (20) absences a year are considered excessive. If illness is given as the primary reason for non-attendance, the principal (at her discretion) may request a physician’s documentation.
If you have any questions, please contact our Data Manager, at Karesa.Quattlebaum@cabarrus.k12.nc.us
