Attendance

 

Did you know when a student is absent:

The absence becomes a truancy after 10 days if it is not cleared?
Each period or day of a student absences cost Van Nuys High monies that pay for teachers and staff, supplies, a nurse and other essentials.

Every parent must have high expectation and clearly state attending school is mandatory and so is good grades. Education provides options.

Why is coming to school daily so important?

Students that attend school daily:
Get better grades
More likely to attend college
Are more likely to have higher paying jobs
Are more likely to get along better with others

Students that are often absent from school:
Do not perform up to their ability
Are more likely to become dropouts
Are more likely to have alcohol and drug problems
Have a harder time getting along with other

What parents can do?
Let your child know how important education is
Make doctor appointments on days school is closed
Send your child to school everyday unless s/he has a fever
Make sure your child gets a good night rest
