Please call the school office at 425-844-4750 and leave a message at any time. You may also email the office at huntk@rsd407.org. Remember to state the reason for your absence. If your student is ill, please give specific details as the state requires us to report illness symptoms.

• Participation in school-approved activity. To be excused, this absence must be authorized by a staff member and the affected teacher must be notified prior to the absence unless it is clearly impossible to do so. Please submit a "Planned Absence" form.

• Absence due to illness, health condition, family emergency. The parent is expected to notify the school office via phone, fax, or email, or send a note of explanation with the student within ten (10) working days upon his/her return to school

• Absence for parental approved activities, including religious purposes. This category of absence, which must be submitted in writing prior to the absence, shall be counted as excused for purposes agreed upon by the parent. An absence may not be approved if it causes a serious adverse effect on the student's educational progress. Please submit a "Planned Absence" form. Planned Absence forms are available in the school office or on the Cherry Valley website and must be approved by the principal BEFORE your child's absence.

• Absence resulting from disciplinary actions - or short-term suspension.

If you do not report your student's absence to the Cherry Valley office, we will consider the absence unexcused. We do make "safe arrival" calls when we have absent students who have not been reported. Always call the school office, even if you have spoken to your student's teacher.
