ATTENDANCE
Reporting Absences
Late Pick Up Policy
In the event that a child has an absence, please contact the teacher to report all absences. Via your Hubbe Parent Portal, please enter the reason for absence. When a child is absent from regularly scheduled care at any time the staff must ensure the absences are recorded accurately. The parent/caregiver is responsible to enter the reason of absence and sign for the absence/s with a full legal signature.
It is important to pick up your child on time every day. Staff must follow the regulation established by the CA Dept. of Social Services and Community Care Licensing. The regulations state that all children must be picked up from the classroom by the end of the licensee’s posted hours. All children must be picked up by the end of the three-hour session. If a child is not picked up on time, the following specific rules and procedures regarding late pick-up will occur: • 1st Occurrence: Parent will receive a written warning late pick-up notice • 2nd Occurrence: Parent will receive a 2 nd . written warning late pick-up notice • 3rd Occurrence: A late pick-up review meeting will be scheduled with the teacher and a supervisor to review the program handbook to discuss the program late pick-up policy and develop an action plan to avoid future late pick ups When children are not picked up at the end of class, immediate attempts to contact the parent/guardian and/or emergency designee(s) will be made by the preschool teacher or staff. When children are not picked up within 30 minutes after the end of their class, and no contact has been made with or received from the parent/guardian or other emergency card designee, this will constitute an “emergency situation.” The preschool teacher or supervisor will take appropriate steps to ensure the safety of the child; this may include contact with Child Protective Services and/or the local police authority
Emergency Closures In the event of an emergency due to weather, fire, flood, utility problems, or other issues that will necessitate the immediate closure of the state preschool classroom all parents will be notified as soon as possible. This would be considered an excused absence due to unforeseen conditions.
