To clear an absence, early dismissal or late arrival, a parent or guardian must call the 24-hour attendance line at (925) 461-6600 and then press "1". We do not accept notes or e-mails in high school to request and/or clear absences, early dismissals or late arrivals.
This is a 24-hour phone line, so calls can be made any time of the day or night. Every absence or tardy of any kind must be cleared by a parent or legal guardian within 72 hours or absences are considered “cuts” and are subject to disciplinary action. If your student's teacher marked them tardy or absent and you believe that is incorrect, please have the student contact the teacher for an attendance correction form. Please pay attention to these errors, as they contribute to unnecessary truancy letters.
