Attendance Matters

BCMS Safe School Reporting (Tip Line)

Safety of all our students is a top priority at BCMS. Reports go directly to the school administration. The report will be investigated and your student can choose to remain anonymous unless he or she requires follow-up.

Attendance and Tardies / Asistencia y Tardanzas

Please remember that if your scholar is absent or late due to being sick or a doctor's appointment, she or he will have to bring in a note to excuse their absence or tardiness. Doctors, dentists, optometrists, etc., offices will have notes that you can send to school with your scholar. Parents/guardians if you write a note, please include your scholar's first and last name, grade level, date/dates of absence, and the reason for the absence (dentist appointment, my child was ill, etc.). This will help to clean up and excuse some of the current outstanding absences and/or tardies.

Recuerde que si su estudiante está ausente o llega tarde debido a que está enfermo o tiene una cita con el médico, tendrá que traer una nota para justificar su ausencia o tardanza. Los consultorios de médicos, dentistas, optometristas, etc. tendrán notas que puede enviar a la escuela con su estudiante. Padres/tutores, si escriben una nota, incluyan el nombre y apellido de su estudiante, el nivel de grado, la fecha/fechas de ausencia y el motivo de la ausencia (cita con el dentista, mi hijo estaba enfermo, etc.). Esto ayudará a limpiar y excusar algunas de las ausencias y/o tardanzas pendientes actuales.
