Early registration helps with adequate staffing, placement in your home school preference, and appropriate class size.

• Report it using the attendance link in ParentVue and note your pick up time and any other pertinent information. Please note, this does mark the student absent for the day, but attendance is reviewed on an ongoing basis and will be corrected accordingly.
