Attendance

Minnesota state law requires that every child attend school for the entire time school is in session. In compliance with Minnesota law and District Policy 503, students are expected to be in school every day unless they are ill or there is an emergency in the family. Research is overwhelmingly clear that attendance is one of the key components to academic success for students. When a student will be absent for any reason, the parent/guardian is expected to notify the school.
