ATTENDANCE REMINDER: It is a requirement of RRISD that notes from home and/or doctor's excuses for absences be turned in to the attendance office on the date the student returns to school. Absences will not be excused without proper documentation. TRAVEL is not an excused absence. Three or more unexcused absences will generate a Truancy Warning Notice.
In your note please include the following: Student's FULL name, grade and ID number, the reason for the absence, parent/guardian's name and signature.
Questions, please contact Mrs. Santos at 428-2504.
