Excused Absences
Once a student reaches 10 days of excused absences, we require that all subsequent absences be verified by a physician, school nurse, or other school personnel. (California Education Code 46011). Verification of absences must be provided within 20 days of the absence.

Doctors Note
Doctors or dentist notes/letters can be submitted in person or via email to Veronica Chaves at vchaves [at] campbellusd.org

Reported Absences
Please note that attendance is not cleared immediately after notifying. As morning tardies, calls, voicemails and emails are handled in the order received it may take about 24 hours for a reported absence to be cleared, so we gratefully thank you for your patience. 

When calling please clearly state your child's full name, date, relationship, reason for absence and symptoms if calling in sick.

For all doctor or dentist appointments a note is required to excuse the absence.
