Absence Reporting Procedure 


Delaware City Schools is once again utilizing the automated student absence reporting system called Safe Arrival. This system reduces the time it takes to verify student attendance making it easier for you to report your child's absence and easier for staff to respond to unexplained student absences.
Safe Arrival allows parents to report their child's absence quickly and conveniently in several ways:
1.  Parents can log into a website, go.schoolmessenger.com to access a Safe Arrival Parent Portal where an account can be set up to report absences. The email used to set up the account must match the email you gave to the school.
 
2.  Parents can call into an automated interactive telephone system via a toll free number (1-844-817-5313) through which absences can be reported.

3.  If you have an Android or Apple device, you can also download the School Messenger app. You can go to the Google Play store or the Apple App and search using the keyword "School Messenger". Download the app with the blue swirl logo.
