RHETORIC ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES

If your student is home sick or has a last minute appointment, please email Jennifer Tompkins at [email protected]. Students should check FACTS for missed assignments and contact teachers if they need clarification.

If your student has a pre-planned appointment or absence, he or she must get a pre-planned absence form from Mrs. Tompkins (also available on the Parent Portal) and obtain required signatures. All work is to be made up beforehand or at the direction of the teacher. For college visits, students must also get an official note from the college to confirm that they attended admissions events. 

If your student gets sick while at school, he or she may visit the nurse, and the nurse will contact you. Students are not permitted to text parents during the school day and will not be permitted to leave unless the nurse has spoken to a parent.

 

 

PARKING STICKERS

Student Parking Stickers

As students have updated vehicle information, the easiest way to update this is for the student to do so through his or her FACTS app.  Use the Forms tab to get to the Student Auto Registration.
