OMS Attendance Policy:
- When your student has 5 unexcused absences, you will receive a letter informing you that your student has 5 unexcused absences, and you will have to attend an Attendance Meeting with an administrator.
OMS Tardy Policy:
- Students have 4 unexcused tardies to school. (If your student is at school on time, but tardy to 1st block, it will count against the tardies to school.)
- On the 4th unexcused tardy to school, you will receive an email informing you that your student has been tardy to school 4 times.
- On the 5th tardy, your student will be assigned the Extended Day from 2:25-4:45pm. Students will sit on the benches in the front lobby until the teacher picks them up.
School Meals:
Reminder: OMS is not a CEP school; students have to pay for their meals. I encourage everyone to fill out a free/reduced lunch form online at this link: https://www.nlappscloud.com/Welcome.aspx?api=4440375fbce149aec588846b0f2bc5e5#loaded.
If you need a form in Spanish, please ask your student to come to the Main Office to pick one up.
If you would like to put money into your student's account, you can either give your student money; you can bring in money, or you can put money into your student's account online here: https://www2.mypaymentsplus.com/welcome
