Office hours for additional enrollment processing, will take place Tuesdays through Fridays, between 9am and 2pm.

Milpitas Unified School District Board Policy states (Education Code Section 48261) that when a student is absent from school, the parent/guardian must notify the school every day of absence by calling our attendance line (408) 635-2882 and press 2.

When calling please, “Identify yourself as the parent/guardian/caregiver of your child.”
Provide the reason for the absence and date(s) of absence(s). Reasons such as “babysitting, appt. for parent, going shopping, oversleeping, didn’t feel like going, and nothing to wear” are unexcused absences.
Absences may also be verified by sending a note with your child when he/she returns to school.

ABSENCES MUST BE VERIFIED WITHIN Forty eight (48) HOURS

It is very important that this information be provided to the school within the time allotted or your child’s absence will be considered unexcused. Excessive unexcused absences and/or tardies will result in truancy procedures.
