PLEASE EXCUSE MY CHILD...
If your child is absent from school, you have three days to turn in a note to the attendance office in order to have the absence excused. The school may only excuse your child's absence if he/she is mentally or physically unable to attend school. (NRS 392.130)
Your child will turn in his/her note to the Attendance Clerk located in the cafeteria before school.

Once a student exceeds 10 unapproved absences per semester, he/she will lose credit, regardless of what grade they may be earning.

The note must include the following:
-Your child's complete name and student number
-The date your child was absent
-Reason your child was absent
-Parent/Guardian signature
**You may not phone in an excuse**

HOW CAN I GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ATTENDANCE?
You will receive attendance notifications in the mail for both excused and unexcused absences. You may not call the school to verify absences. Due to the confidentiality of student information (Regulation CCSD 5125.1, Family Education Rights of Privacy Act of 1974), Molasky JHS will not release or disclose information from a student's educational/attendance record by telephone, as we are unable to ascertain the identity of the caller. The parent/guardian must go to the office and present proper identification (valid picture ID, driver's license, military ID) prior to any information being given.
