Attendance -

**Students are required to have ACADEMIC PROGRESS (work submitted daily) and COMMUNICATION (Advisory Attendance assignment) every day for daily attendance.**. CLA High School students are also required to attend their Advisory session in person each week. PLEASE CALL THE OFFICE IF YOUR STUDENT IS SICK OR UNABLE TO COMPLETE COURSEWORK. This information will allow us to code the absence correctly and will prevent an attendance letter from being automatically generated from the student profile.

Gear up for College & Career Day! Join CLA in wearing college and career gear on the 1st Thursday of each month.

Look forward to our Student of the Month feature once school begins.

Is your student interested in Student Leadership? The Leadership Team plans events, runs monthly assemblies, and builds CLA culture. Please have your student contact Mrs. Curry if they are interested.
