Principal's Message...
Our first sizeable field trips take off this week, with our 6th graders heading over to Hemlock in Virginia for team activities, each team taking one day. A science field trip on Team Geneva lands at the Air and Space Museum, and more are in the making. Each field trip is vetted by the administrative team to ensure that it meets the particular extra- or co-curricular goals of the team, the class, the club, or the school (with the exception of our end of the year celebrations!). The reason we take these trips seriously is because living in Washington DC provides some significant opportunities for students. Not being in school has a cost, of course, and thus the review process. This raises another issue, attendance. Far down this bulletin to the left is a description of the new DCPS attendance policy. Like last year, students can only be excused from school for medical or religious reasons (with some other reasons, far less frequent, itemized as well). We take attendance with all the seriousness it deserves, and the penalties for students missing school is severe. We are talking about unexcused absences at this point - family trips, keeping a child at home as caregiver or for some other familial purpose, or not ensuring that the student actually gets to school at all. Our job, collectively, is to educate children to be tomorrow's adults and leaders. If they are not at school, or not at school on time, this will not happen. It is remarkable the number of children in DCPS that miss school. Although the numbers are much lower at Deal, there are a number of students that don't make it in. Attendance is the single greatest predictor of dropping out in high school. This year, the school is required to have teachers (or the school) call with each absence; the third absence will get a call from the Chancellor (or designee), the fifth absence will require a family meeting with social worker and attendance counselor, the police send out a letter on the seventh absence, and by the tenth absence, child and family services are called. This is the procedure and we will follow it. But my promise is that we aren't going to sit around and wait for a student to be unserved. If we are moving up the absence "ladder," my team will be reaching out early to let families know what is coming. The correct thing to do is to not let it get to a point where you are having your child leave school or not show up for just any reason - but we are here to help remind you how serious that charge is. And why would someone want their child to miss school? Look below to the right - the incredibly rich array of activities that accompanies our strong curriculum and teaching staff. This year there are 11 distinct music clubs or ensembles, not counting performances. Debate, sports, robotics, homework help - well, you can read the list yourself. We need to keep every child focused on learning while they are here in the building, loving their time here, and preparing for it when they are home. With our addition of Period 8 this fall, we are even seeking ways to give interested students and families a way to interact with some of our most dynamic teachers online. All this for those who attend Deal! Thank you for doing your part - we will keeping working on ours. James Albright Principal

Important Changes Made to DCPS Attendance Protocol
1) The Office of Youth Engagement now identifies students who accrue 10 unexcused absences as "chronically truant."
2) Students must be referred to court once they have reached 15 unexcused absences.
3) Students must be at school 80% of the entire school day in order to be considered "present".
Reminder
The only excusable reasons for a student's late arrival and/or absence from school are:
- Illness or medical cause (a doctor's note is needed for 5 or more absences)
- Medical or dental appointment
- Death in the student's immediate family
- Summoned to attend in judicial proceeding
- Religious holiday
- Lawful exclusion or expulsion from school
- Failure of DC to provide transportation
- Emergency or circumstances approved by LEA
In order to be acknowledged as "excused" the student must provide a note to the attendance counselor (written or electronically) from the parent and/or guardian relaying at least one of the reasons listed above.
If you have any questions please contact the Welcome Center and ask to speak to the Attendance Counselor, Ms. Johnson.
