Tips for LHS Attendance

• You can excuse your student through three different resources (include students name, date of absences and when they will return):

• Call 307-721-4499 

• Through the online Parent Portal (not the Powerschool app).  Instructions can be found at: here or see the LHS website

• Email LHS attendance

• Parents can get notifications when their students attendance change through the Powerschool app  

• Students are only allowed 10 days of absences per semester.  After that the student will be marked as unexcused unless a doctor’s note is provided, or a prearrange absences is requested 48 hours in advance

• Doctor’s appointments are exempt from the 10 day absence rule. Please always request a doctors note for appointments and ask them to fax it to 307-742-3719, or Email LHS attendance

• All absences need to be corrected within 72 hours

• Please call if your student is going to be late for class. We don’t fix late students’ attendance until they arrive at the Attendance Office.  If they don’t stop, they will be marked as Unexcused.

• If your student is accidently marked absent, encourage them to talk to their teacher to get it corrected

• We’re always happy to help answer questions, feel free to call (307-721-4420) anytime
