Edsby Notifications

Attendance matters. We know there are days that due to illness, family emergencies, and just day to day life, you will not be able to attend school. We respectfully ask you to let us know on those days your child(ren) will not be attending. 

Every morning staff make phone calls to Elementary families to ensure our students not at school, who didn’t previously inform us they would be absent, are safe. This child check process is an integral part of our safety planning. 

To enhance our child check process we will begin sending attendance notifications to EEP- Grade 6 families in all Elementary schools through the Edsby app starting on February 5, 2024. If your child(ren) are not at school, and we haven’t received a note that they will be absent, you will receive a notification in the Edsby app before you receive a phone call from your school. We trust the notification will be a reminder to enter the app and let us know if your child will be attending school that day. 

How can you help?
