Report An Absence

A parent/guardian must report any absence, late arrival, or early departure to the Attendance Office (408)266-1060 or attendance@presentationhs.org before 8:00 a.m. for each day that the student is absent.

Students are not allowed to report themselves absent.

Please also remember the following:

  • Please include your student’s first and last name, the grade level, the reason for the absence, and any specific symptoms if your student is ill.
  • If you are reporting a positive covid test result, please be specific with the date of the positive test result.
  • If your student is arriving late or needs to leave early, please give the reason and the estimated time of arrival or departure.
  • If your student is absent, leaving early, or arriving late from any doctor’s appointment (ie: pediatrician, dentist, orthodontist, eye, therapy, vaccine injection or lab work) you must have your student bring a note from the providers office to the attendance office at the time of their return to campus. Failure to do so may result in a detention.
  • Unless you have discussed an extended leave of absence with the Dean of Students, you must call in each day that your student is absent.
