High School
Absences—If a student is sick, will be late, or has an appointment, a parent must call the Central Office at 308-385-6394 or you may email Kasie Hudnall at khudnall@ginorthwest.org or Ann Beckmann at abeckmann@ginorthwest.org to notify us of the student’s absence. Students must check into the office if they are late or coming back from an appointment. If a student gets sick during the school day, he/she must go to the nurse for evaluation to determine if there is a need to go home.
Appointment Notes—If a student has an appointment, they should get a note from the doctor, specialist, etc. and bring it to the Central Office so it does not count against their attendance. Notes may also be faxed to 308-316-2941.
