The Parent Link Automated Calling System is programmed to initiate a phone call/email to the parent/guardian's PRIMARY contact on file for any student that is absent without a parent or physician's note during the school day. Calls will go out each school day. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to input the excusal into the Skyward Family Access Portal or send a written note to the Ulrich Attendance Office within 5 days to excuse the day's absence. Notes to the Attendance Office should include the student's name, your name and relationship to the student, a phone number for reference, and a brief message explaining the circumstance. Medical notes may be submitted by hand, fax, or by taking a photo of the note and emailing it to the Attendance Office. ([email protected] or fax- 832-375-7599) Medical notes must not be altered in any way.
REMINDER: Parent Link calls are initiated TO the primary call number and serve as a communication tool from the school to the parent/guardian. This Parent Link call does not excuse the absence or change the coding to an excused absence. The parent/guardian must provide a written excusal to the Attendance Office within 5 (five) school days either by fax, Skyward notification, or hand-delivered note to excuse the absence. After 5 (five) school days, the absence cannot be excused and the coding cannot be changed, per the Klein ISD Intermediate Handbook. NOTE: If you need to change or up-date your primary phone number during the course of the school year, please contact Ulrich's Registrar at 832-375-7441.
