Report an Absence

To ensure your child's absence is properly documented, please complete the School Absence Note form in its entirety and upload any required supporting documentation at absence.nisdtx.org. Make sure to use an email address that is verifiable in eSchool, as this will be used for communication. If additional documentation is needed or incorrect documentation is submitted, promptly respond to any follow-up emails and upload the correct information. Once your submission is received, you will receive an email confirmation acknowledging that the School Absence Note has been successfully submitted.

Report an Absence

  • Our school day starts at 7:40 AM.  All students should be in the classroom at their desk by the time the 7:40 AM bell rings.  

  • If your student plans to eat breakfast at school, they should arrive no later than 7:30 AM.  This gives the student time to go through the line for their food, sit down to eat without being rushed, and get to the classroom by 7:40 AM. 
  • If your child is absent please contact the office at (817)698-1950 to report your child absent for the day. Upon their return please send a note explaining why they were out.  You can also report an absence by using this link.  
  • Texas Education Agency requires all students to attend at least 90% of the school year.  If a student does not meet this requirement, they could be in danger of retention.
  • Our school day ends at 3:00 PM.  Students will begin gathering their things for dismissal at the dismissal bell at 3:00 PM.
