Fairfax County Public Schools has granted parents and/or guardians with access to "real-time" attendance information via a SIS Parent Account. Student attendance details can be accessed by clicking Attendance on the SIS Navigation bar. With this view, parents will see all excused and unexcused tardies, absences, and scheduled activities by period. By selecting a designated period, parents will have access to student schedule information including a list of their student's teachers and their email addresses. It is recommended that parents check this information prior to contacting the teacher or grade level attendance number for support.
Need a SIS Parent Account? Contact our Student Services office (703).619.3112, your student's counselor, or review the FCPS SIS Parent web-page for more information. SIS Parent Account Registration
Single Period Attendance: If you have questions regarding a specific single period attendance issue, please contact the teacher for the assigned period for assistance. The teacher must approve any single period corrections.
Scheduled Student Check-out: When checking your student out, the fastest and easiest way to ensure your student is released in a timely manner is to send a note to the sub-school with your student in the morning. Your student will be issued a check-out pass for the scheduled time. You may also call and leave a message on the assigned grade-level attendance number in the morning. Please provide your student's name and time they are to be dismissed.
Unscheduled Student Check-out: The deadline for picking up a student for unscheduled checkout is 2:30 pm. Parents and/or emergency contact(s) should report to the Main office. Allow at least 15 minutes and bring a photo ID to complete the checkout process.
Sick Student Check-out: When your student is not feeling well, it is their responsibility to request a pass to the Health Room for assistance. The parent and/or emergency contact(s) can be called to pick up the student. By reporting to the clinic, our Health Room Attendant and/or Nurse can identify potential sicknesses and help to prevent widespread illness throughout the building.
