New: Report Future Absences through ParentVUE

Starting August 19, parents and caregivers can report up to two consecutive full-day absences using ParentVUE. For absences longer than two days, please contact the school (see Attendance Contact Information by School below).

All Day Absences: The Attendance feature in ParentVUE is the FCPS secure web solution for reporting all day absences.

Partial Absence: To report late arrivals, early dismissals, or to update already submitted attendance, please contact the school  (see Attendance Contact Information by School below).

Enrollment at Multiple Schools:  ParentVUE can only be used to report absences at the student's base-school.  If the student is enrolled at more than one school, attendance reporting for the non-base schools must be completed via their preferred means (see Attendance Contact Information by School below).

How to Report an Absence Through ParentVUE

Note: For optimal experience, we recommend using a web browser.

  2. Select the End Date only if you are reporting an absence for two (2) consecutive days.
    1. Note: For absences longer than two (2) consecutive days, late arrivals, or early dismissals, contact the school directly (see Attendance Contact Information by School below).
  3. Select A Reason from the dropdown menu:
    1. Report Illness Abs (fever, cough, sore throat, flu, etc.).
    2. Report Absence (anything not health-related).

  4. Provide details for the student’s absence in the Note box. This information helps the school process your request quickly and reduces the need for a phone call.
  5. Upload Documentation, if available, using the  “Add doctor’s note or document” button.
  6. Click Save.

Note: The Attendance module (calendar) will display an "X" for the submitted date(s). Hovering over the date will display the note labeled "Pending Verification”. Once schools process your request, the “X” will change to the Excused icon (a green check mark) or the Unexcused icon (a red X).

IMPORTANT: Please do not attempt to resubmit attendance for the same day(s). If you need to update previously submitted attendance, contact the school directly.

When trying to resubmit for the same date(s), you may receive an error message (see image below). Please be aware that even if you are able to resubmit, the school will only be able to process your initial request. Absences can only be reported once per day. For any changes, please communicate directly with the school by calling the attendance line or emailing the attendance office (if applicable).

Did you know?

  • Regular school attendance in elementary school improves the chances that your child will read on grade level.
  • Chronic absenteeism (missing 18 or more school days per year) is a primary cause of lower academic achievement even when the absences are "excused" or understandable.
  • Students who attend 90% or more of the school year are more likely to graduate from high school on time.
  • Absences can be a sign that a student is losing interest in school, struggling with school work, dealing with peer conflicts or facing some other potentially serious difficulty, and help is available. 

Attendance Policies

In Virginia, all students aged five (5) through eighteen (18) are required to attend school regularly. FCPS must record student attendance every day school is in session.
