FAQs

When your child is absent, please call the attendance hotline (858) 538-2094 or email the attendance at [email protected].

 

All students are considered tardy if they are not in their classroom at 8:45 am. Remember that you may drop off your child as early as 8:20 am. Please plan accordingly due to heavy traffic in the morning.

If your student is arriving late, please be sure to send them through the office for tardy verification before they go to the classroom. All late arrivals are indicated as an unexcused tardy unless you indicate the reason he/she is tardy. Parents may call or email [email protected] to report the reason for late arrival.

 It is also important to please call the Attendance Hotline at 858-538-2094 or email [email protected] if your student will not be arriving before 8:30am.

If tardy due to a doctor appointment, please request a doctor’s note and provide to the office at check-in.
Medical Notes: When your student misses any amount of school for a doctor/dentist appointment, it is beneficial to his/her attendance record to bring an official medical note to the attendance desk. Any all-day absence excused by a medical note does not count toward your student’s absence total.  

Please remember – Tardy students walking into class impacts the learning environment for everyone.  Please be on time.  

 

Should there be a planned absence of five days or more please see the front office staff as soon as possible to set up a homework contract for the student. A contract should also be used for extended illnesses.  A minimum of one week is required to set up an OCIS Contract.

 

It is important that students are picked up before 2:20 pm Monday- Friday as there is no supervision after-school. When it is not possible for you to pick up your student before this time, please note that ESS (Extended School Services) is available for a charge, from 6:30 am – 6:00 pm.

If your student has lost a sweatshirt/jacket or any other item, CVES lost and found is located next to the custodian’s office by the entrance to the Multi-Purpose Room.  Please be sure to check periodically, as the lost and found items are donated periodically. 

During school hours, email is the best way to contact your teacher.  If you have trouble reaching the teacher, you may contact the school office to relay a message for you.
