Attendance will be taken daily in class. Teachers are responsible for taking accurate attendance. An absence is missing a Teams class altogether. If the student reaches out to the teacher and makes up the missed assignment/exam/homework, etc., this absence will not be included in their Attendance Record.

School Messenger/Robo Calls  - These evening phone calls report absences for live class sessions missed that day. Students can still resolve these absences by engaging in teacher assigned work asynchronously before the next scheduled meeting for that class. If you need to excuse an absence, please do ONE of the following:

• Email: ehsattend@lwsd.org
• Leave message: 425 936-1539 - please spell your last name clearly.
• Call us: 425 936-1500 - please ask for Attendance.

An absence may only be excused within 48 hours. Parent/Guardian communication is required for excusing an absence. You can email ehsattend@lwsd.org or leave a voicemail at (425) 936-1539. Please spell the last name of the student clearly. Please also leave a reason for the absence.

Per Washington State law, students and their families are responsible for school attendance. The parent/guardian of any student who is absent from class should leave an e-mail or phone message with the Attendance Office within 48 hours of the absence to explain the circumstance around the absence. After 48 hours, the absence will be considered unexcused.

Students do not have scheduled classes on Wednesdays.  However, Wednesdays are still part of the 180 days that Washington State has set aside for their education.  This is NOT a day off from school.

Every Friday, data from Teams or any other Microsoft product (except for Forms) will be extracted to determine if a student engaged in Asynchronous learning on the previous Wednesday.  If the student did not participate, they are marked absent in period 11.  This system was put in place to support teachers who were having to check engagement themselves, student by student for 150+ students per teacher.

For future Wednesdays, please sign in to Teams at any time between 9am & 12pm and complete an assignment for any class that you choose.  This will keep your name off of the Teams data sheet and prevent an Absent mark.

WOLF TIME is normally scheduled on Tuesday and Friday from 10:10am – 11:10am. This is part of 2nd period, in number only. Students sign up for or are assigned this class by a teacher. Students are responsible for checking their Wolf Time assignment in FlexiSched and attending where they are assigned. If they go to a different Wolf Time, they will be marked absent.
