Attendance Matters!

Attendance drives everything! It is tied to almost every aspect of school performance and future outcomes. Please visit the Falls Church High School website attendance page for updated policies and procedures.

What are some simple things we can all do about attendance?

  • Positively encourage good attendance with your children
  • Communicate about obstacles to attendance so the school can offer support
  • Encourage, support, and assist your children with learning and acting responsibly by:
    • Asking specific questions about classes and homework
    • Get to know your child’s teachers
    • Reach out to teachers when your child is struggling

Avoid absences unless absolutely necessary!


Arrival to School

The building will open for students at 7:50 am

Please help us spread the word to our in-person students.

Thanks!
