Attendance

If your child will be absent, please call our front office at (281)234-0200 to report their absence before 10:00AM or use the Online Absence Report Form (located on your right).  You can also send a parent's note or doctor's note with the student upon their return, fax them to Attendance: (281) 644-1680, or send an email to usecommunications@katyisd.org with your student's full name, reason for absence and attach a copy of the guardians ID.

Tardies

Students should be in their homerooms by 8:30AM.  If your child arrives after 8:30AM they will be counted tardy, please escort them into the building and advise the front office of the reason for the tardiness so that the reason can be documented. Please state the reason or provide documentation for the tardy so that the attendance clerk can accurately note it.  Unexcused tardies will affect your student's qualifications for the Exemplary Attendance Award. If your child arrives after 9:55AM without an excused reason, they will be marked absent for the rest of the day.

Picking up your Child Early

If you are picking up your child early from school, this must be done by a parent/guardian or emergency contact before 3:00PM each day. If you are taking your child to a doctor's appointment, please remember to ask for a doctor's note so that their time away from school is excused.  Also, if anyone other than a parent/guardian or an emergency contact is picking up a student, we must have written documentation by email with a picture of the guardian's ID, ahead of time, giving us permission to release your child.
