Attendance Procedures

Please send all attendance notes to HWCAbsence@hcpss.org and include:

  • Student first and last name
  • Parent/Guardian name
  • Phone number Indicate in the subject line if you are requesting an absence, late arrival or early dismissal.

Please send your note from the e-mail address on your Family File.

For an early dismissal, indicate the reason, time and if the student will return to school that same day.

For an absence or late arrival, please put a reason for the time missed.

Please check in at the front office to pick up your child or if you are bringing them in late. If you need to send an email at the last minute, please call the front office to indicate that you have sent an early dismissal email, and the student will be called out of class.

All notes must be emailed to HWCAbsence@hcpss.org. Notes should be received within 5 school days of the absence. We appreciate your help in this process.
