ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES

Sienna Crossing Elementary School recognizes the importance of daily school attendance. We look forward to educating your students during this school year. Helpful links are provided here for more information concerning Fort Bend Independent School District's attendance policies and procedures. 

Daily Attendance

Attendance is taken on a daily basis. Sienna Crossing Elementary doors open each morning at 7:30am and class begins at 8:10am. Any student not present at 10:00am is recorded as absent. The parent will be notified by automated phone call and/or email each day a student is absent. When students are absent, parents must send a note stating a reason for the absence to the school within five school days of the students return to school. The note must include the date(s) and reason for absence. Failure to send the note within five school days after return to classes will result in the absence(s) being recorded as unexcused.

Need to submit your absence note? Submit it electronically by emailing: AttendanceSCE@fortbendisd.com.  

Tardy Arrivals

At 8:10am, students are to be in their classrooms. After this time, they are considered tardy. If a student is tardy the parent must escort the student into the building and sign them in. In order to excuse a tardy, you will need to turn in a doctor's note upon arrival. A student is absent if not in class at 10am.

Early Pickups

A student picked up after 10am but before 3:25pm is considered an early pickup.  In order to excuse an early pick up, you will need to turn in a doctor's note when returning to school.

If you need to change your student's way home it must be done in writing. Please email your teacher(s) to let them know. If you have not heard confirmation of the change from your teacher by 2:30pm please call 281.634.3680 and ask the front office staff to notify your teacher that there is a change. For your student's safety phone calls are not accepted for changes of way home.
