Dear Inman Elementary Families,
At Inman Elementary, student safety is our top priority. To enhance our attendance procedures, we are introducing a new system for notifying families about student absences.
Starting March 31, 2025, instead of receiving a morning phone call from the office, families will receive an email by 9:45 AM if their child is marked absent without an excuse or arrives late without signing in at the office. This update helps us maintain a safe and efficient communication process while ensuring all students are accounted for.
To make absence reporting easier, families can now notify the school by email if their child will be absent or late. You can either:
- Email us directly at inman.info@burnabyschools.ca with the required details.
- Reply to the absence notification email with the reason for your child’s absence.
When reporting an absence, please include the following information:
- Student’s Full Name
- Student Number
- Grade
- Division / Teacher’s Name
- Reason for Absence (if known)
If you have any questions or concerns about this new process, please don’t hesitate to contact the school office. Thank you for your support in keeping our students safe!
