Automated Attendance Line: (630) 617-2444
Attendance Office Hours: 7:00 A.M. - 3:30 P.M.
Signing out of School/Late Arrival/Early Dismissal
If your student is:
Arriving to school late, during first period: students must enter through Door 1 (Academic Building) and proceed directly to class.
Arriving to school after being called out sick: students must enter through Door 1 (Academic Building) and report to the attendance office prior to going to class.
Arriving to school late, after first period: students must enter through Door 1 and proceed to the Attendance Office (located in Room C171/auditorium hallway) to check in and receive a pass to class. “Overslept”, “car trouble”, and “traffic” are not considered excused absences or tardies.
Arriving to school late as a result of an appointment: all appointments need to be called into the York Attendance Office at least 24 hours in advance of the appointment. Please call 630-617-2444 to leave a message on the automated attendance line. When your student arrives at York following the appointment, they must enter the building at Door 1 and proceed to the Attendance Office (located in Room C171) to check in and receive a pass to class. Failure to follow these procedures will result in the student being marked absent unexcused.
Feeling ill: students should ask their classroom teacher for a pass to the Health Services office. If it is determined that the student needs to go home, the school nurse will contact parents/guardians to pick the student up (or release the student). Students will receive a pass and will exit the building through Door 3. Students leaving for the day through the health services office do not require a parent/guardian phone call to the Attendance Office. Health Services will resolve student attendance for the day if proper procedures have been followed.
Needing to leave school early due to an appointment: all appointments need to be called in to the York Attendance Office at least 24 hours in advance of the appointment. Please call 630-617-2444 to leave a message on the automated attendance line. When it is time for your student to leave for the appointment, they must report to the attendance office to obtain a pass to leave the building. They will then exit the building through Door 3 (main entrance). Students who leave the building without obtaining a pass will be marked absent unexcused, regardless of whether or not a parent/guardian leaves a message. This is paramount to student safety.
Needing to be picked up during the day for an appointment, but will be returning to school: students should follow both of the above procedures when leaving the building and, again, when returning to York.
All students arriving to York after the start of the school day must enter the building at Door 1.
All students leaving the building prior to the end of the school day must leave through Door 3, with a pass.
Requesting Attendance Correction
If you or your student believes that they have been marked absent or tardy to a class in error, please follow these steps:
Student reaches out to the teacher with the concern.
Parent/guardian reaches out to the teacher with the concern.
Please do not call the Attendance Office with your requested attendance correction, as that line is automated. The attendance office does not record student attendance for individual classes and, as such, will not be able to assist you with your concerns. Please reach out directly to the teacher of the class.
