SUBMITTING ABSENCES FOR ALL DAY

Please use the following steps to submit a Skyward absence for all day only. If you are only going to be gone for a part of the day, you can just contact the front office. Doctors notes can either be brought back to school or emailed to lbmsattendance@lcisd.net within 48 hours.

Again, this option should only be used for a full day absence:

open the skyward app on your device
click attendance
click add absence request
make sure date is correct
make sure all day is selected
use the dropdown arrow to select a reason
add comments if necessary

This is the process for middle schools. We understand that the elementary and high schools may have their own process.

THANKSGIVING LUNCH

If you are planning on joining us for lunch, please instruct your child to meet you in the lobby near the front doors. From there, you are more than welcome to grab a seat in the cafeteria, library, or overflow hallway. Below are a few additional reminders:

Guest tray's are $5.00
Students that check out early without a documented excuse will receive an unexcused absence. It's important to provide this information because it could negatively effect semester exemption days listed below. For 6th graders, this is a change in the secondary setting.

With your votes, the Foundation can continue providing valuable resources across Lubbock-Cooper ISD. Thank you for helping the Lubbock-Cooper Education Foundation build the future, one student at a time - every vote counts!

ADOPT-A-PATRIOT
