Reporting Student Absences

The preferred method for reporting absences is in writing. At the high school level, using Power School to report absences is not available.

Please email msaunders@hrce.ca to report a student absence (this should be done from a parent/guardian email address). In your email please include - student name, student grade, and expected date of return to school.  Alternatively, a written note may be dropped off in the main office upon student's return.

Please note: 

  • Field trip and school athletic absences will be updated after the fact, once a list of those students who were in attendance is sent.  This can sometimes take a couple of days.
  • Co-op attendance is entered by the co-op teacher at the end of the week, once confirmation of attendance at the placement is confirmed.
