RCSD - Submit an Excuse for an Absence

Parents, RCSD policy requires all excuses to be submitted no later than the third day following an absence when a student returns to school. School staff must still approve excuses once submitted. You may take pictures of doctor's notes or other documentation using this form. RCSD policy also limits students to a maximum of 10 days missed that can be excused with written parent notes.

You can access the RCSD Attendance Policy here, starting at page 57.
