Reporting Absences
Punctual and regular attendance is very important to your child's success in school. The schools are required by law to keep an exact record of reasons for absences (e.g. illness, bad weather, appointments). If your child must be absent, please call the RMMS Attendance line ( 773-8261 ) before 9:00 a.m. Please give the following information on the recorder:
1. Child's first and last name
2. Teacher/Grade
3. Reason for absence
4. Request for missed work
Unreported absences will be verified as required by state law.
Tardies
Students have the responsibility of being at school on time. Late students must stop at the office for an admit slip before going to class.
Closed Campus
Students must stay at school throughout the day unless they have a written request from parents. Requests must be approved by the principal. The principal has discretion in granting permission to leave campus for lunch. Even with principal permission granted, students must check out and in through the office if they leave campus during the school day.
Withdrawing Students
Parents are required to sign a withdrawal form when students are going to change schools. At the time of withdrawal all school materials must be returned (e.g. textbooks, library books) and outstanding bills paid.
Student records will be forwarded to the new school.
