Temporary Home Study Packet:  

Students are able to recuperate attendance for days missed by completing a Temporary Home Study packet while they are absent anywhere from 1-15 days.   This can be done for an extended absence, or for any absences throughout the school year that total up to 15 days.

Here is how it works:

1. Notify the office of your child's extended absence (between 1-15 school days)

2. Come to school and sign your Temporary Home Study contract and pick up your child's packet of work.

3. While your child is out of school, have them complete the designated portion of the packet.  

4. Return the packet to the school office when your child returns to school.

Students may only use the Temporary Home Study packet program for 15 days total in a school year.  If you have any questions please check with your child’s teacher or call the office.
