Student Absences and Early Dismissals
ABSENCE REPORT FORM
Student Absences: All student absences should be reported in the morning by calling the Health/Attendance Office at 631-382-2825, emailing GMS-Attendance@smithtown.k12.ny.us or by filling out the Absence Report Form through the link above. In order for absences to be entered into the system as an excused absence, we require written correspondence from a parent/guardian or doctor.
Early Dismissal: If you are picking your child up from school early, the student must bring a note to the Attendance Office in the morning. Any early dismissals should be picked up no later than 2:15pm, otherwise children can be picked up on the walker line at normal dismissal time where no note is required.
