Hello from your School Social Worker!
North Carolina has a mandatory attendance law. If a student has to miss school because of sickness, doctor's appointments or a death in the immediate family, the legal guardian should send a note to the school giving the reason for the absence within 2 days of the students return to school. Students can turn in notes to the office or give to their homeroom teacher to turn in.
Research shows that attendance impacts academic performance. Being here matters!
