North Penn School District utilizes Infinite Campus for Attendance:

Through Infinite Campus you can report your child out the day of an absence. If you know your child will be out of school ahead of time, you can preschedule the absence.

In the IC parent portal click on 'More' in the list of options on the left. Then click on Absence Request in the list of options. Follow the prompts to correctly mark your students absent, late or tardy.

If you are unable to utilize Infinite Campus, please call Mrs. Gillmer at 215-853-1441 or email [email protected]

Due to recent changes in federal regulations, it is imperative that we receive a phone call, note, or e-mail for each absence. Students with three unexcused absences will be scheduled for an attendance improvement conference with school officials, and students with six unexcused absences will be classified as habitually truant.
