Class Absence Form

This form is ONLY for students in the Texas Academy of Mathematics and Science and must be submitted to the TAMS Academic Office any time you plan to miss class or if you have missed class for any reason. For unplanned absences, the form must be submitted within 24 hours of the absence. Students will then need to provide documentation from a medical professional—a parent phone call is no longer required or satisfactory—of their illness in order to avoid receiving 5 academic points for the absence.
