If Your Child is Absent...
Parents should always notify the school by
9:00AM,
either by
phone or by e-mail, whenever their child will be
absent. If there is no call or e-mail from a
parent, the office staff must verify the student is
absent by calling the parent. (Note: A written
excuse with a parent signature is still required
when the child returns to school.)
 Call the office at 399-9141
ext. 3500. This number is always available.
Or

Requesting
Assignments for Students Who Are Ill If
your child is absent from school
and you feel that
he/she is capable of working on assignments during
an illness, you may request work. By
9:00AM, please call the office at 399-9141 ext.
3500 and indicate if the work is to be sent home

children to bring their books back when they return
to school. |

Safety measure:
Elementary pupils must attend sports events with an
adult Burnt Hills-Ballston
Lake parents are advised that 8th grade and younger
pupils may not attend evening varsity
interscholastic sports events without an
adult. This proactive policy change was made
due to a growing number of youngsters being left
unsupervised at games and more incidents of
fighting, belligerence and other inappropriate
behavior.
