MTHS Attendance
Notification System
~
Along with implementing the BECCA law, MTHS has an
attendance notification system designed to help students develop and practice
responsible attendance habits and increase their potential for academic success.
It also provides parents with the tools to monitor their student’s
attendance.
~
Attendance
will be taken each period in each class.
~
After
one period of unexcused absence we inform the parent.
This is done by computer phone contact between the hours of 5:00-9:00
P.M.
~
If
the student continues to be absent, the parent should call the teacher and
discuss options for improving the student’s attendance.
~
School related absences which require a student to miss class do not count
towards BECCA.
School related absences are defined as school sponsored field trips,
school counselor appointments, administrator appointments, suspensions and the
school sick room.
