Request for Excused Absence for Educational Reasons

  • Please use this link to request an excused absence for educational reasons. We request that this form be submitted at least five days prior to the absence so that we have time to process your request. Please return the form to Ms. Dare at the front desk or email it to her  (mdare@wcpss.net).

    Note that for an absence to be excused, the intent of the experience should be educational from the outset and comparable to that which the student would have experienced in school. Family trips and vacations that were not designed, initially, to be educational will not be excused.
