Student attendance is crucial because it directly impacts academic success, social development, and future opportunities.
Students who attend school regularly are more likely to keep up with lessons, participate in discussions, and complete assignments. Missing even a few days can lead to gaps in learning, making it harder to catch up.
Research shows that chronic absenteeism (missing 10% or more of school days) significantly lowers student performance.
If your student misses school...
We encourage students to come to school EVERYDAY, but if they have to miss you can email Parent Notes and Doctor excuses to either hjhs.attendance@hsv-k12.org or hjhsattendance@hsv-k12.org
