Attendance
A missed school day is a lost opportunity for students to learn. There is a direct correlation between students who attend school regularly and higher academic achievement levels. If your child is missing school, please call 907-742-3900 before 9:15 a.m. to report the absence.
Tardy studentsStudents who arrive at school after 9:00 a.m. must sign in at the office.
Parents/VisitorsAll parents and visitors entering the school building are required to sign in at the office.
Pick-up contact informationIf there are changes to the contact information for individuals designated to pick up students from school, parents must come to the office to pick up/fill out a change form.
Missed schoolworkMountain View considers attendance extremely important and parents who choose to remove their children from school must be aware that teachers will not be responsible for missing school work.
A voluntary absence is defined as: Any absence where the parent or guardian by choice removes the child from school, which includes but is not limited to vacations, private lessons, truancy, or baby-sitting.If your child has an absence due to extenuating circumstances, you can request to have those absences pre-approved.
