Sunset High School has a strict attendance policy. Students are expected in class every day, and they are expected to be on time. If a student is absent, the parent should call the school on the day of the absence and each day thereafter or send a note explaining the absence with the student upon his or her return to school. All absences for any reason (including illness, doctor's appointments, funerals, etc.) must be made up by the student.
Students have 5 school days to make up their time, beginning on the day they return from their absence. You can not bank hours in advance. Only time made up after the absence will count toward the absence.
Please call the office at (760) 753-3860 to report a student's absence. All absences not cleared by a parent within a week of the missed day will result in truancy.
