Attendance & Early Dismissals

Attendance Procedures

• If your child misses school or is late for any reason, call the Attendance line at 317-544-5000, x5100 or option #1. You may call this line 24 hours/day.
• Students will be marked "unverified" (unexcused) without a call from a parent.
• If you student was marked "unverified" in a class for the day, you will receive an automated call/text. An unverified absence means we have not received a phone call from a parent/guardian about the absence.
• If you receive this phone call/text and feel it is in error, please have your student talk with the teacher who marked the absence or you can contact the teacher via email. 
• If the absence needs to be marked differently, the teacher will contact the Attendance Office to make the change.
• All medical verification should  be emailed to AHSAttendance @avon-schools.org
