How to Excuse an Absence 

Please report absences within 3 days using one of the following:

1. ParentSquare (easiest method)
   - Respond to the absence notification with a reason such as sick, medical appointment or family matter.
   - No need to call or email.
   - Not signed up yet? Here's more information about ParentSquare and how to sign up!

2. Email
   - Send the student's full name, date of absence, and reason for absence to attendance_covington@evergreenps.org.

3. Phone
   - Call (360) 604-6305. Spell your student's name, give the date(s) of absence and the absence reason. Note: This method is slower, and voicemails may be hard to understand.
