Attendance Practices

Shannon Phipps, Attendance Secretary (Shannon.Phipps@lcps.org)

Consistent attendance in school is critical for meaningful learning. We understand that a variety of factors can disrupt student attendance. We will work with you to support your student’s success. The key to this support is clear communication. Please assist us in letting us know about your student’s absences. Many of these absences are excused with proper notification (illness, death in the family, medical or dental appointments, court appearances, religious holidays, etc.). School staff will reach out when absences begin to accumulate, but it is important that you are proactive and communicate your student’s needs to the school. Our goal is to support student engagement.

Please navigate the tabs on these pages for further directions about how to communicate student attendance. The most important step is to make sure that you have your ParentVue account activated. Please refer to the “ParentVue and StudentVue” tab on the main page for details about activation. You can also explore the link below.
