ATTENDANCE POLICY

There will be a limit of 5 unexcused absences for the month of August. These include vacations and illness. If you absolutely must vacation in August, please submit your dates in writing to the head coach before or no later than the first practice in August. In all other cases of absence, the coach must be notified prior to the day’s affected activities.

Beginning after Labor Day through the end of the team's competition season; there will be a limit of 3 unexcused absences from all practices, games, and other Pop Warner activities. For any absence, whatever reason, the coach must be notified prior to the day’s affected activities.

An absence is considered excused for the following reasons only: religious obligation, death in family, medical reason NOTE: If there are more than two (2) consecutive absences for medical reasons, a doctor's note is required.

Arriving to practices or games late or leaving early will be monitored. Any combination, whether 3 late arrivals, 3 early departures, or a mix of both, will be considered 1 unexcused absence.

Attendance will be monitored and dismissal from the squad could occur if the child exceeds the absence limit pending the outcome of a meeting conducted by the BPW Executive Board. NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN. Of course, in the case of serious illness, considerations will be made.
