Advanced Absence Form - High Point Christian School

For planned absences of longer than two consecutive school days, please submit this form at least one week prior to the absence. For all other absences, please contact office@hpcsmadison.org.

Under the Compulsory School Attendance guidelines, the State of Wisconsin mandates that no parent may excuse a child from school for a non-medical, parent-excused absence for more than 10 days in a school year.

Additional notes/comments:

EXCUSED TRAVEL ABSENCE POLICY The value intrinsic to the classroom experience and the instruction given cannot be made up solely by the completion of missed assignments. Therefore, whenever possible, families are encouraged to plan their family trips during HPCS scheduled vacation periods. On the occasions when this is not possible, students may be excused from school outside of the regularly scheduled vacation times.

For detailed information about homework make up due to travel, please see Section 5 of the HPCS Family Handbook.

I understand and agree with the excused travel absence policy above. * (1 required)
