Attendance Notes
Did you know there are several ways you can submit an excuse when your child is absent?
- Written note to include: name of student, date of absence, reason for absence, and signature of parent/guardian
- Submit an excuse through the Sapphire Community Web Portal
- Fax a written note from the doctor's office to (717) 375-4533
- E-mail a written note or doctor/provider note to the school secretary: stephanie.masker@casdonline.org
- Send a Dojo message to the school secretary: Stephanie Masker
Whatever way you choose, the note must be received within three days of your student's return to school from the absence. Some absences will still be considered illegal, even if a note is received. Some examples of this include, but are not limited to: personal, overslept, missed the bus, parent's illness, roadwork, bad weather, appointment for someone other than the student, no one to get student off the bus, etc.
