July 22, 2024 Attendance Law Update
Starting this school year, there is an important update to Kentucky’s School Attendance Law (KRS 159.150). Under the new legislation, the Director of Pupil Personnel will now be required to notify the County Attorney’s office by filing a petition when a student accumulates 15 or more unexcused absences throughout the academic year. 

We understand that there are times when absences are unavoidable. Families are encouraged to refer to the student handbook to familiarize themselves with the policies regarding excused absences. Our primary goal remains to collaborate with families to support students' educational journeys and to address any barriers to consistent school attendance.

Should your child approach the threshold of 15 unexcused absences, it is important to be aware of the potential involvement of the county attorney’s office as mandated by this new law.

DOCTOR NOTES AND PARENT NOTES

Parents/guardians can download, scan, or take a snapshot of a parent or doctor's note or any other type of attendance excuse and email it to their child’s school.
