Early Dismissals Notice and Attendance Policy

Early Dismissals Notice

Requests for early dismissals should be made using the ahsabsence@hcpss.org email address or by sending a note in with your student.  Hard copy notes should be brought to the attendance office first thing in the morning and your student will be given a dismissal pass at that time. Email requests should be made earlier in the day, not at the last minute.

In-person requests for early dismissals must be made before 2:00 pm.

If you need your student for an early dismissal between 2:00-2:20pm, please email earlier in the day to request it at ahsabsence@hcpss.org. Your student will be called down at the requested time (no later than 2:20pm), and they will meet you outside.

We will not be processing in-person early dismissals after 2:00pm and will not be doing ANY early dismissals after 2:20pm.

Thank you for your cooperation.

    • Any students who arrive after 7:50 am will sign in electronically using a check-in system called StudentVue. Students should have a copy of their school ID with them to sign in.
    • Discretionary absence requests must be completed and attached through email in advance of the absence. Currently, the anticipated last day of school is June 15, 2026. The possibility exists (due to inclement weather, etc) that the school year could extend up until June 23, 2026. Please be mindful in making plans that consist of dates within this window as the days would be utilized for course final examinations which may not be taken early.
