    Welcome to the Attendance Policies and Procedures

     

    Please be aware that as of February 2020, PA Legislation (Act 138) has been revised. Act 138 stipulates that after three (3) days of unlawful absences (including unexcused absences) within one school year, parents will receive a letter from their child's school outlining the consequences of habitual truancy and inviting them to a School Attendance Improvement Conference (as required of schools per the legislation).  Additional absences may result in a referral to a school-based attendance improvement program, referral to Bucks County Children and Youth Services, and/or a citation for violating compulsory attendance laws.  Penalties for conviction include fines of up to $750.00 for each offense. Central Bucks School District attendance policies conform to the Pennsylvania School Code sections 1326 to 1333 dealing with compulsory school attendance. 

     "Every child of compulsory school age having a legal residence in this Commonwealth...is required to attend a day school in which the subjects and activities prescribed by the standards of the State Board of Education are taught".

    ABSENCE NOTIFICATION:

    Instead of receiving an automated call if your child is absent, the district will be sending a text message to all cell phone numbers you have listed as “guardians” in Infinite Campus.  Please make sure that your cell phone information is updated.  When your child is absent, you will receive a text message at 11:00am.  You will then receive an email at 2:30pm to confirm that your child was absent for the full day.

     

    For additional information about school attendance please see  School Board Policy 204.

    Thank you for visiting the CB South Attendance web page and helping us to maintain accurate attendance records for our students. It is our hope that this resource will help home and school work together to support good attendance and success in learning.
