Attendance at Genesee Hill

If your child will be absent from school, please remember to email your student’s teacher and the attendance office at geneseehill.attendance@seattleschools.org or call 206-252-9700. 

We are legally required to contact parents regarding all absences. 

All unreported absences are marked as unexcused until we hear from the parent. 

If you email your child’s teacher that they will be absent ahead of time (planned vacations, doctor’s appointments, or extended absences), please also send that attendance information to the attendance office email posted above.

Students arriving to their classrooms after 7:55 am are marked tardy. 

Medically related reasons or family emergencies are excused. 

Any student who arrives at 7:55 or later will need to check in at the front office to be admitted into class. 

If you need to pick your child up early, please come to the front entrance and ring the bell. The office staff will call your child’s classroom and ask their teacher to send them to the office.
