Due to the nature of language acquisition and the number of hours of language instruction required to achieve proficiency, Waadookodaading has adopted a very strict attendance policy. It is unacceptable to take up a spot in a classroom and not attend regularly. This prevents other families the opportunity to learn. Waadookodaading will follow LCO School attendance and truancy policies with the following exceptions and restrictions.
If a student does not attend school during the first week and does not have a doctor’s note, their continued enrollment in the school will be reviewed.
If a student is going to be absent for the day, guardians MUST call the school by 9AM that morning to notify administration. This phone call must be made or it will be considered an unexcused absence and will be referred to LCO School truancy officer
Absences consisting of 3 consecutive days or 3 days in any given week require a doctor’s note. Absences of this kind which do not have a doctor’s note will be considered unexcused absences and will be referred to the LCO School truancy officer for follow up.
If a student is going to be late for school (tardy) a phone call MUST be made by 9AM that morning to notify administration.
Students with 10 unexcused absences will need to meet with the director to discuss and review their child’s continued enrollment in the school.
