Attendance
CLEARING ABSENCES:
Parents/guardians must clear all absences within 5 school days. After this time, parents/guardians must contact the school administrator for approval.
To clear your child’s absence, contact your child’s school. A parent/guardian can also send a note with their child or click on the link below to access the digital absence form online
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd32s2LG84M9Ut_9SRd6e_mQmMdIPsMafiocLPl0JICYvmWAQ/viewform. This form is also located on Robinson's website.
- Parents/guardians must clear all absences within 5 school days. After this time, parents/guardians must contact the school administrator for approval.
- The LBUSD allows parents to excuse up to three (3) consecutive days or ten (10) illness absences in the school year without verification of illness from a medical professional or school employee (School Nurse). Anytime your child has a doctor’s appointment and/or documentation requiring them to stay home from school, provide this verification immediately to the attendance office when your student returns to school. These absences will be recorded as excused. If verification is not provided, the child's absence will be recorded as unexcused until documentation is received. Per district policy, absences extending beyond the three (3) day consecutive rule or ten (10) illness absences in the school year will be considered unexcused, unless a parent/guardian provides a doctor’s verification to the school. If a student suffers from a chronic condition that may affect their attendance, a parent can submit a Certification of Chronic Medical Condition Form, so that absences related to the illness can be excused.
During the 2023-24 school year, illnesses can also be cleared through documentation of positive COVID-19 cases from a doctor’s office, health department, lab or home test. If a student is ill or is exhibiting any COVID-19 symptoms, they should stay home and notify the school. The school’s parent notification system will contact you when your child is absent ( if you have requested notifications via phone or email).
