The best way to obtain information during a crisis in the building is email and/or BV Alerts system. Periodic updates will be left to keep parents informed. Please check your email/cell phone regularly so that in case of an emergency you will receive the emergency information. Be sure to keep your email address current in the Parent Vue system. Sign up for BV Alerts at www.bluevalleyk12.org/bvalerts. ATTENDANCE Philosophy: A high correlation exists between regular attendance and success in school. The State of Kansas delegates to the Board of Education the responsibility of determining excusable reasons for absence. Absences: If a student is absent from school, a parent is asked to call Blue Valley HS the Attendance Office (239-4801) before 9 a.m. or as soon as possible on the day of the absence. Attendance Line 239-4801 Excused Absences The Blue Valley Board of Education and Blue Valley High School have identified the following reasons for excused absences: • Student illness • Major illness or death in the family (mother, father, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, death of a friend). • Physician and dental appointments that are verified. • Emergencies requiring a student's service or presence at home that are verified. • Obligatory religious observances of the student's own faith. • Family vacation, family business, and college visits arranged in advance with the administration (with class assignments arranged in advance and due upon return or a date agreed upon by the teacher, whichever is later). • Participation in a school-approved student activity • Personal matters. • Unexcused absences are those absences that do not meet the criteria for excused absences as listed above. Consequences may include detentions, lunch detentions, in-school or out-of- school suspensions. Parents may ask that a student be allowed to leave school at any time; the administration determines if the absence is excused or unexcused. NO CLASSROOM CREDIT WILL BE GIVEN FOR UNEXCUSED ABSENCES. Upon return to school a student without verification will be unexcused until absence verification occurs. It is the responsibility of the student and his/her parent to see that such verification is made through the Attendance Office within 48 hours. Parents may ask that a student be allowed to leave school at any time; the administration determines if the absence is excused or unexcused. Attendance Policies/Procedures 1. Students needing to leave school for an excusable reason must furnish advanced parental verification. Parents should call the Attendance Office or send a written note with their student to give to the Attendance Office in advance of planned appointments (1-2 days prior is preferred for scheduled appointments) or as early in the day as possible on the date of the appointment. (Advanced notice to the Attendance Office assists with having students ready at the desired time for parental pickup and/or ensures students who are driving to appointments are able to leave at the requested time.) 2. The Attendance Office will have a pass delivered to the student the day of the appointment. 3. The student will show the teacher the “Permit to Leave School” pass. 4. The student will then report to the Attendance Office to sign out before leaving the building. 5. If a student knows he/she is to receive a pass to leave the building, he/she can pick it up in the Main Office during a passing period. 6.
