On any day that a student is going to be absent due to illness or any other reason, the parent/guardian should telephone the SLA secretary, Diane LoGiudice at 215-979-5620 by 8:30 am. After an absence from any contagious or communicable disease, a note from the family physician or release from the Board of Health should be delivered to the School Nurse or School Secretary. In the case of all absences, students are encouraged to stay current on their school-work using the SLA website to receive assignments and take part in classes.
