Email attendance@gcafrisco.org for student absences & tardies by 8am.
Parents, we try to spread love not germs, please keep your student home if they are showing signs of illness. Students need to be:
- fever free for 24 hours before returning to school
- on antibiotics for at least 24 hours before returning to school (dependent on illness).
- no upset stomachs for at least 24 hours before returning to school
If you do keep your student home, please email attendance@gcafrisco.org to let us know and we will let their teacher know.
Due Date for Work: Excused Absences Only
Students with excused absences of any length should turn in all work by the second class day back at school. Work that was due the first day that was missed is due immediately upon return to school. For example, if a student who attends class three days a week (M-T-Th) is absent Monday and returns to school Tuesday, the homework that was due on Monday is due the day they return: Tuesday. The homework due Tuesday is due Thursday. (Extenuating circumstances may allow for other arrangements to be made. Please contact individual teacher.)
Planning an Absence?
If you know of an upcoming doctor appointment, vacation, college visit, etc. please fill out the Planned Absence form below. Our attendance team will make teachers aware of your student’s absence.
