Report an Absence

At Paramount Unified, every school day matters. When a student misses school, they miss important learning and connection. Families are encouraged to stay in close communication with the school so students can stay on track!

How to Report an Absence

Step 1: Report the absence (same day when possible)

  • Log in to ParentVUE and select “Report an Absence”
  • Or contact the school office

Step 2: Submit within 3 days

  • Report online or send a signed note

Step 3: Include:

  • Student name and birthdate
  • Date of absence
  • Reason for absence
  • Parent/guardian signature

When Documentation Is Needed

Please submit official documents for:

  • Doctor or medical visits
  • Court appointments 
  • Funeral services 

Important: Students on a SART contract must provide documentation for all absences. 

Why Communication Matters Keeping the school informed helps:

  • Ensure absences are recorded correctly 
  • Allow students to make up missed work 
  • Provide support when needed 
  • Even a quick update makes a difference.
