Attendance Policy
Attendance is important to the success of the Cheer Squads.
Please consider our attendance policy before you commit to
registering your athlete for our program.
Three (3) unexcused absences will be allowed from the start date
of the season to the last event of the season.
NO absences are allowed 14 days before an event. An absence
within 14 days of an event will result in not competing at that
event and may affect routine spots.
ALL absences must be documented in writing via our
absentee/vacation forms. An email, text, group chat message,
etc. will not count.
Excused Absences:
-School events that affect grades
-Contagious illness or injury with a physician's note (athletes
who are “not feeling well” or have minor injuries are still
expected to attend and activity will be limited.)
-Death of a family member
Unexcused Absences:
-Non-contagious illness, non-graded school events,
birthdays, family gatherings, no transportation, other sports
