A complete and accurate count could provide Philadelphia billions of dollars to help support special education programming, school meals, and health and housing support for students and their families. Please visit www.philasd.org/census to complete the Census and learn how you can help others do the same!
Attendance MATTERS! Strive for 95!
Attendance During Digital Learning:
- School attendance policies will be followed.
- Students are expected to attend Google Meet or Zoom meetings and classroom assignments between the hours of 8:36am and 3:15pm, Monday through Friday, excluding Holidays.
- Students will be counted as absent if they do not participate in activities or meetings during the school day hours.
- Any student not attending sessions before 10:30am will be counted as having a half day absence.
- Any student not attending sessions after 1:00pm will be counted as having half day absence.
- If students must be absent or leave early for appointments please email a note to their classroom teacher or Secretary Marybeth Sgrillo. A note is needed to excuse an absence, but not all absences will be deemed excusable.
Illegal absences are in violation of the compulsory attendance provision of the public school code of laws of Pennsylvania.
If your child is 6 years old or in grades K-3 and has 10 illegal/unexcused absences you as the parent may be referred to the Department of Human Services (DHS) for truancy.
If your child is in grades 4-8 you may be referred to Truancy court. If your child is referred to DHS or Truancy court, a DHS agency provider will be assigned to your case and will begin home visits. You are encouraged to improve your child’s attendance.
Under Pennsylvania law, all students must attend school, every day.
