Attendance 

Regular attendance is critical for academic success. Students are allowed a maximum of 10(5 per semester) unexcused absences in each year-long class and a maximum of 5 unexcused absences in each semester class. Students may not receive credit seat time in a class if they exceed five days in a semester or ten days in the year. Attendance is verified each period of the day. Please monitor your student's attendance on interim reports and report cards. Please have your student present a parent's note or doctor's excuse to the attendance clerk. 

Tardy Policy

Students should be in their first class, ready to begin working at 8:20 AM each school day. Any student who is not in the building and through search by 8:10 AM will be marked tardy to school. Please refer to your student and parent handbook for more information.

Early Dismissal

WPM operates under a closed-campus policy. Students must remain on campus from the time they arrive at school until they are properly dismissed. A student may check out through the front office only if a parent, guardian, or approved adult comes to the school prior to 3:00 PM to sign the student out with a valid ID.

If you have any questions regarding attendance, please contact Jade Dewitt at jdewitt001@horrycountyschools.net.
