Dominion Attendance Procedures

Welcome to the 2020-21 school year!

The first and most important step that a student must take to ensure success is to attend school each and every day. If a student develops regular attendance habits, we are confident that she/he will find success at Dominion High School. If, however, a student is absent more than 10% of the days that school, or any specific class, is in session, that student will risk loss of credit for the course, regardless of the grade earned.

The Loudoun County School Board has established that the following reasons, accompanied with appropriate documentation, will be labeled as excused absences:
Personal illness
Death in the family
Medical or dental appointments
Court appearances
Religious holidays
Illness in the immediate family
Emergencies that are approved by the principal

Trips or activities that enhance or extend the student’s education, when approved by the principal in advance.

Looking forward to a wonderful school year!
We're all in this together!
