Absences of 5 days or more need 2 weeks Notice

Mount Elizabeth’s Attendance Policy states that if parents wish to take their child out of school for five or more days and wish those days to be “excused absences” the parent must give the school staff at least two weeks notice of such an absence. Therefore, we, at the school, require that students bring in a note from their parents/guardians, two weeks before going to the All Native Basketball Tournament in Prince Rupert, BC. This Tournament starts on February 5 – 11, 2012.

Students will be excused from making up time when they miss any days (Only if they have a note from their parents/guardians two weeks in advance), this is considered a Cultural event. If they pass the two week deadline and any days that they miss, they will have to make up the time for it.
