When your child is absent due to illness, you must send in a note in order for the absence to be excused. You can get a note from the doctor, write your own, or use this link to download a note to fill out and send in.
Please be advised of the Coppell ISD attendance policy for elementary learners:
For all absences:
Send a handwritten note with your child to school within 3 days and include your child's first and last name, dates absent, and an explanation of the reason for the absence (email is not considered a handwritten note)
If a note is not provided, the absence will be marked unexcused
Doctor’s Appointments:
Please bring a doctor’s note, not just a handwritten parent note
Extended Absences:
Please notify the teacher and request approval from the Assistant Principal
Please provide a handwritten note after the absence with your child's first and last name, dates absent, and an explanation of the reason for the absence (email is not considered a handwritten note)
