Attendance and Absence Report Procedures
It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to report all student absences to the Attendance Office prior to 8:45 a.m. by using the Absence Requests in Infinite Campus Parent Portal. The online IC Absence Request tool is the preferred method for communicating student absences. Other methods for reporting absences include calling 414-247-4225 or emailing baysideattendance@foxbay.org, stating the reason for the absence and the probable duration. If we do not receive a call reporting the absence, the school will attempt to call the parent or guardian at home or place of employment. This procedure is necessary to verify that the student is safe. Please view the District Policy #5200 regarding attendance.
If your child arrives late or leaves early, it is essential that they check in and out of the school office so that our records are accurate.
Arrival and Dismissal
Supervised arrival for students begins at 8:00 am. All students should be dropped off at Door 9. 5th grade students should report to the LMC. 6th-8th grade students should report to the Cafeteria. All students will be marked tardy if they are not in their assigned location when the 8:20 a.m. bell rings.
Students departing by car must be picked up at Door 9. No traffic is permitted in the bus loading area. Students leaving school prior to the regular dismissal time must check themselves out at the main office.
Dismissal during the school day
A note from home is required prior to dismissing a child for a part of a day for such things as medical appointments, etc. We encourage these appointments be made outside of the instructional school day whenever possible.
