Mandatory Attendance - Attendance at West Virginia Academy fulfills the mandatory attendance requirements for children under state law. Our policies are designed to support our academic programs in meeting the needs of the whole child. Absences add up! Also, for every 10 tardies, your scholar will receive an unexcused absence. Scholars are considered TRUANT when they reach 10 unexcused absences. Please ensure your child is at school and on time each day.
Educational or Family Leave of Absence - West Virginia Academy recognizes the importance of experiential learning and family enrichment opportunities and supports these efforts through its student leave policy. Please make sure you complete and submit the form in advance of taking leave so that educational or family leave is not improperly counted as an unexcused absence.
Educational or Family Leave of Absence Form
Sick Days - We understand our scholars may need to stay home for illness in order to recover and ensure a healthy environment for other students. Notifying administration and teachers early is beneficial for continuity of learning. Also, please bring your excused note to the front office within THREE days of returning to school. You can also email the excuse to attendance@WestVirginiaAcademy.org
