LFHS Parents and Students,
 
Throughout the 2016-17 school year, the administrative team took an in-depth look at our current attendance policy, procedures, and practices. Attendance is a significant aspect of schooling and all schools are not only required to have an attendance policy, but to also have coherent procedures that ensure safety, well-being, student participation, and support for students who struggle with attending school.
 
This year, we will implement necessary changes to our attendance procedures and practices to ensure that we are in alignment and compliance with Illinois School Code and support student safety and accountability. Our decision to make changes to our attendance procedures was not optional.
 
Please take a moment to review the attached information regarding our revised attendance procedures. We invite you to join us at one of the upcoming informational meetings if you have answer questions or need further clarification.
