Statement of Philosophy
In order for students to receive the most comprehensive education possible, student attendance on a regular basis is vital. It the responsibility of all educators, parents and students at John Jay High School to ensure students late arrivals to school and classes and absences are kept to a minimum. Those absences that cannot be avoided must be cleared through the attendance office. To maintain accountability on the part of all stakeholders, weekly tardy and attendance reports will be sent out to administration by the attendance clerk and managed by the assistant principals. This plan is aligned to both state regulations and our Board of Education policies.
