  • Attendance - Melissa King-Pierce

    • Early Dismissal:  On the occasions that you need your student to be dismissed from school early, please send in a note stating the time of dismissal with your student.  Students should bring the note in to the front office before the school day begins so they can be given an early dismissal pass to leave class at the appointed time.  This limits interruptions to class room instruction as we do not have to call in to the classroom to call students down for early dismissal.  The note must include the date, time of dismissal and parent signature.  Phone Calls / Emails will not be accepted.

    Please understand that every parent note may NOT be coded as “excused”.  Absences do NOT go away when they are excused, they are just coded differently to indicate excused.  If your student is not in the building they are “absent” regardless of the reason. 

    For example, parent notes for car trouble, personal business, family business, family emergencies, DMV, family trip (unless preapproved by the designee), no reason listed and SPORTS Showcases are NOT excused under county policy.

    • Medical/Dental appointments MUST be documented with an actual dr note from a dr office, in order to be excused under medical.
    • Absences due to court/legal appearances should be documented with a note from the court/lawyer.
    • Absences for a college visit should be documented by a note from the college on the college letterhead or you may forward the email THANKING you for attending the tour.  I will NOT take an email confirmation for an upcoming tour.  Juniors and Seniors only are allowed 2 per academic year. 
    • Absences due to a death in the family need to have either a copy of the obituary, a link to an obituary, a church bulletin or a funeral card along with a parent note. 
    • Parent notes for an illness/injury are excused.  However, can be limited on how they apply to exam exemptions or recovery. 
    • Any educational opportunity must preapproved by the schools designee no later than 2 weeks PRIOR to the event.  Approvals are based on attendance and current grades when asked. 
    • Absence notes should be turned in to the front office upon the student’s return to school.  However, per county policy all notes MUST be turned in with the 6 week grading period in which the absence occurred to be considered excused (we will take medical/dr notes at any time). 
    • Absences will be coded unexcused in PowerSchool until an excuse is received. Please allow 48 hours for excuse notes to be coded in PowerSchool.
    • Attendance in High School taken in each block, by the teacher of record. If a student misses more than 15 minutes of a block, then he/she is marked ABSENT for that entire block.
    • If you are marked absent but you were “in class”, you must talk to your teacher first, if your teacher made an error your teacher will need to email Ms. King-Pierce to make the correction.  If you had a substitute, you will still need to talk to your teacher first.

    Feel free to email Mrs. King-Pierce (melissa.king@ucps.k12.nc.us) questions regarding attendance or any legal excuse notes.  Every year we receive notes with first names only, notes we cannot read the writing, or notes with no names on them.  Please note that these notes are thrown out as we have no one to attach the note to.

    • DRIVER’S ELIGIBILITY CERTIFICATE REQUESTS

      Once your student has completed the driver’s education class and also completed behind the wheel instruction, you will need to request a driver eligibility certificate(DEC) from MRHS to take with you to the DMV for them to get their permit. This certificate must be requested by completing the form at the link below. 

      https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScPnG958NPdJitgUiosXrnoQKRH_dK5JX-uV6zRdP-1241cag/viewform

      Once the completed form has been received by MRHS, you will receive an email informing you when the DEC will be ready for pickup. The DEC will be in a sealed envelope with your child’s last name on it, on a cart outside the front doors of the school.
