If NOT cleared within three days, absence turns into truancy (full-day cutting)… hour missed=hour owed  
Notes will be accepted but the office prefers a phone call. 
If you are ever out of class without an excuse, you’ll have to make the hour up in detention or SWAP.

6. FIRST PERIOD ABSENCES
We can’t accept transportation, baby-sitting, or “I didn’t wake up on time” as an excused absence. 
The consequence for a first period unexcused absence will result in a detention, or one hour for each period missed. 
Be CAREFUL, when you accumulate unexcused absences, you may be suspended and referred to district office.
