At Dietz K-8, our mission is to create a safe and successful learning environment where we empower students to be life-long learners. We strive to provide a diverse curriculum to meet the academic, cultural, and social needs of our community.

To report an absence for your student:

1. Log into ParentVue from App or Computer
2. Click "Attendance" tab on the left column on the computer or on App as soon as you log in the blue "report absence" with a small bell icon is there.
3. On the top right corner of the page it will have a blue link that says "Report Absence"
4. Use the calendar to select dates and the drop down for reason.
5. You may also add notes or upload a doctor's note and hit "save".

Volunteering is as easy as one, two, three!

New this year for Parents/Guardians:

Per TUSD HR expectation, to ensure safety of our students, ALL parent and non-parent volunteers must complete or update their application each school year.

• Please contact the Dietz office staff to establish a volunteer opportunity prior to filling out this application.
• HR will review your submitted application and work with your selected school to authorize volunteer work to begin.

Volunteer applications may take 2-3 weeks to approve prior to volunteer work beginning. For non-legal guardians, authorization is hindered on completion of a background check. Please stay alert to your email and for questions, please contact the Human Resources team.

Submit your Volunteer Application

We would also like to remind all of our families of the importance of ensuring we are following our morning drop off and after school dismissal procedures for the safety of our students.

• There is one entrance and one exit.
• Please follow the flow of traffic
• Use the proper cross walks
• Slow speed in the parking lot
• There is only one pick up lane.
• If you plan to stay in your car to pick up your child, please know your child's name, teacher's name and grade level. We will have someone get your child and ensure they get to your car.
• Park in appropriate parking spaces (if you do not have a handicap parking permit or a license plate, you must park in the standard parking. Thank you.
• Follow expectations per school staff
• For afternoon dismissal if you plan to get down and get your child, please wait on the Southside of the crosswalk and we will cross your child/ren to you. When parents come to the sidewalk near the school and students, it's difficult for us to see the students and we need to allow our teachers to follow the dismissal expectations.

Thank you for your patience. After a couple of weeks, the routine will be much smoother.
