Hi, Is it ok to say... If your student has been absent for two days, just inform/tell the principal . Yes, but it sounds like you just have one student.

Yes, but it sounds like you just have one student. Say 'one of your students'.

Where I live, we often include 'please' with such instructions.

Not really. I thought I could insert that word (just) to simply do that thing. Thanks Clive! I learned something. Be polite everytime!
