11) Reminder -- Absence/Sign-in/Sign-out (Family): It’s very important that you make attendance a priority for our youth. Consistent attendance is crucial for academic and social success, as it ensures that students are actively engaged and able to fully benefit from the educational opportunities we provide. When students attend school consistently, they not only keep up with their lessons and assignments, but they also develop important life skills such as responsibility, time management, and perseverance. Being present and engaged in the classroom allows students to participate in discussions, collaborate with peers, and build strong relationships. By reinforcing this message, we can work together to encourage our students and their families to prioritize attendance and make the most of their educational experience. Powerschool makes a daily call-out to families of students who had any unexcused absences or unexcused lateness. Please go to the website to review our sign-in, sign-out, and absent procedures including access to our BCP ABSENT FORM (and/or call the office or email homeroom teacher) to formally notify school of an absence. If your child will be late to school you can complete the absence form and indicate in the comments the time that they should be arriving and the reason why. Students signing in late must first report to the office. Furthermore, any students signing-out early for appointments etc. must have a parent/guardian come into the school before their dismissal from class. Once a student is dismissed from class they must come to the office directly before approval to leave.
