Attendance Information and Support

Attendance is a vital component and predictor of our children’s success. Helping families take control of their student's information and attendance is an important part of scholastic success.

Our mission:

At TCMS, students will become lifelong learners and contributing members in a global society.

Key Information for Parents:

• You have unlimited doctor, dentist, therapy, or court notes.
• Parents can write up to 10 sick notes for tardies and 10 sick notes for full-day absences per year.
• There is a 3-day window to turn in notes after absences; notes will not count after that. This is Kentucky law, not Fayette County policy.
• Contact the school for funeral absences.
• Parents can write three (3) notes for family emergency days per year.
• Attendance can be monitored through the parent portal.

• Excuse notes can be emailed to tcmsattendance@fayette.kyschools.us or faxed to 859-381-3060.

  Excuse notes must contain:

  • Name of student
  • Date of absence(s) or tardies
  • Reason for absence(s) or tardies
  • Parent/Guardian signature and date

  ***An email without these items will not count towards an excused event***
