Absence
Parents can report student absences by email at: lakeshore@cbe.ab.ca or can call the attendance line at 403-817-3440 X 1. We prefer if our parents notify the office directly of their child's absence. Often the information does not get to the office in a timely manner if sent directly to the teacher's email.
In your email / message please the leave the following details:
- Student first and last name
- Teacher
- Classroom
- Duration of absence
- The reason why
Extended Absence
We ask that you send an extended absence form to the office indicating the first and last day of your child's absence.
Temporary/Change of Guardian
If the child's guardian has changed, or the primary guardian will be absent for a period, we need to know. We ask that you contact the office with names and numbers in writing. Please note that we cannot release a child to anyone without your authority.
Attendance Expectations at the CBE
Regular and punctual attendance is foundational to student learning, academic achievement and long-term success. The CBE Administrative Regulation 6020 - Attendance of Students applies to all students, and outlines the responsibilities for students, parents and school staff.
