ATTENDANCE POLICY
The student is responsible for being present in class and the "parent or guardian, or other person having control of any minor between six and eighteen years of age shall be required to send such minor to school during the regularly established school day in the attendance area of residence." Students are expected to be in school in each class, each day unless properly excused by the school and parent. The parent is expected to call or email the attendance office the day of the student’s absence to notify the school that they are aware their student is not at school that day.
(801) 452-4603

Parents and students will be required to appear in court as directed on the citation.
