Report a Student Absence
Report a Student Absence
Skwo:wech asks that parent/guardians email or call the school in the case of a student absence.
Please include:
- Student’s first and last name
- Teacher’s name
- Division number
- Date(s) of absence
- Reason for absence e.g. illness, vacation, appointment (medical, dental, other)
Emails should be sent to both skwowech@sd40.bc.ca and your child’s classroom teacher.
Calls may be made 24 hours a day through our voice message system at 604-517-6090
When contacting the school the day of an absence, please call or email prior to 8:30am.
Our school secretaries share the task of tracking absences, arrivals, and dismissals based on the day of the week and staffing, so including the above information with each notification is appreciated.

Our staff are working hard every day to carefully track attendance and report any instances of unusually high absences. Here’s what you can do to help us accurately report our attendance anomalies to Fraser Health:
