Absences

Unexcused Absences

Just a reminder that students who accrue 10 or more unexcused absences during a semester in any period shall be ineligible for school activities, events, and sport participation until the next semester.

 BPS recognizes several reasons that a student may miss school with an excused absence.

 All other absences from school are considered unexcused.

Parent Notes are for sickness only and should be turned in within 48 hours of the students' return to school. 

All attendance questions can be directed to  Melbournehigh@brevardschools.org
