With a new school year, there are some changes to the Floodwood Schools Attendance processes. Two of the changes to note are Exempt Absences and Vacation Absence Notification.
An absence is considered exempt when the absence is accompanied by a note or letter on a physician's document excusing the student for medical or dental reasons. Exempt absences will not contribute to excused absence counts or total absence percentages and counts.
Family vacations absences submitted through the “Vacation Absence Notification” form, found on the district website, will allow staff to prepare work for students to stay current on assignments while gone from school on family vacations. These absences will then be excused.
For additional information on attendance, please visit: https://5il.co/2suz8

New cell phone policy (please discuss this with your child):
Students will not be allowed to use or have cell phones during class/instructional time. When they enter the classroom there will be a designated location for their cell phone. It will be expected that each student places their cell phone in this location. This expectation is in compliance with a new law that requires school districts to have a policy in place to reduce the impact of cell phones on students’ mental health, behaviors, and academics.
In order for this to be successful and to have the most benefit for our students, we need your help. Please discuss this with your child(ren) and support this policy as we follow through on our end.
If you have questions, please reach out!
