Meyer Elementary is in Elementary Group B. School begins at 7:45 a.m. and ends at 3:10 p.m.
Excused Absences: State law allows excused absences for religious holy dats, required court appearances, activities related to obtaining US citizenship, health care appointments, for students in the custody of the state, TAPS at a military funeral, parent/step-parent/legal guardian who is an active duty member of the uniformed services, personal illness, death/funeral of an immediate family member, or quarantine. Examples of these absences and required documentation can me found in the 23-24 Elementary Student Handbook, pages 15 & 16.
Documentation After an Absence: Attendance excuse notes must be received within 5 days of the absence. These notes must be signed, dates, and describe the reason for the absence. Please note that, unless the absence is for a statutorily allowed reason under compulsory attendance laws, the district is not required to excuse any absence, even is the parent provides a note explaining the absence.
5 Consecutive Days of Illness: Upon return to school, a student absent for more than 5 consecutive days because of a personal illness must bring a doctor's note verifying the illness or condition that caused the student's extended absence from school.
