How to report

Report full-day absences, late arrivals, early pickups, and appointments on your Stetson Academy account. Use Report an Absence from School Resources, My Calendar, or /absences. The office is notified automatically, and the notice appears on your family calendar.

Phone (707-471-5101) or email ([email protected]) is only for true last-minute emergencies when you cannot use the account.

Appointments

If your student has a scheduled appointment, please report it at least 24 hours in advance to have the absence excused.

Long-term absence

Long-term absences are considered absences of 3 or more days. If your student is going to be absent for 3 or more days, please report it at least 1 week in advance so that we can prepare make-up work.

Illness

We understand that you may not always be able to report in advance of an illness. If your student is ill, please report it on your account as soon as possible and include the anticipated return date.

Illness absences of more than 3 school days require a doctor's note to be excused. Without a note on file, those days are unexcused. You may submit the absence first and upload the note when you have it.

Vacation

We excuse up to 5 days of vacation per year. Vacation taken in excess of 5 days will be considered unexcused. To minimize the disruption to your student's education, please report vacation at least 1 week in advance and, when possible, schedule vacations during school breaks.
