Student Attendance Information

  • Walt Disney Elementary encourages good habits regarding school attendance. Our School District Code of Conduct and Code of Character states our belief that there is a positive correlation between student attendance patterns and academic achievement. Excessive absences, tardiness, and early departures could undermine and jeopardize a student's academic success. Many educational experiences take place during the school day that cannot be "made up."

    Excused Absences:

    • Call the main office by 9 a.m. (585-247-3151)
    • Or send a note in to our attendance office upon your student's return to school

    Unexcused Absenses:

    • An automated message will contact you at your provided contact numbers, prompting you to call the school
    • Formal attendance letters will be generated, sent home, and kept on file throughout the year if a student accumulates a concerning amount of unexcused absences
    • Families may receive phone calls from, or be asked to meet with, members of our School Attendance Team if a student accumulates a concerning amount of unexcused absences
