The details of the NAHS attendance recovery plan for each semester are listed below. Our plan is based on UNEXCUSED absences over 5 days per semester (this is based upon the block schedule).

• Students who have missed over 5 unexcused days will be notified of how much time the student will need to recover in order to receive credit for the course.

• Attendance make-up time will be offered on a 1:1 basis (1.5 hour (90 minutes of class time) of make-up time = 1 class period).  For any year-long course, a student must be in attendance for at least 85 days. Excused days include reasons such as medical, bereavement, and principal-approved absences. 

• Make-up time will be offered for 1 week during the intercession periods in October and April.

• Make-up time will have an academic focus.

Absences may be emailed to our attendance clerk at nahsattendance@acpsd.net.

In order to ensure prompt attention to our students and parents, requests for early dismissal should be provided to the main office before 9:30am. Your handwritten note will need to include the student's name, parent's name, parent's phone number, parent's signature, and the desired time of dismissal on the requested date. Please do not send emails for early dismissal. You are welcome to sign your student out via the front office any time before 3:00pm.

Please only email excuses for absences to our attendance clerk at nahsattendance@acpsd.net.
