• A doctor’s excuse is required if absence is due to illness. Parents are responsible for excuse being turned in to the CCE office within a two-week period. After two weeks the absence will be automatically recorded as an unexcused absence.
   
• The only consideration made for consecutive absences (hospitalization) is with an original doctor's excuse.
