- Attendance Policy, 18 or Older
-
- Each student 18 years old or older will be limited to a maximum of 15 days absence during any one semester.
- A student who is absent from any class more than 15 days per semester may be denied credit for that class. A failing grade will be recorded on the student’s transcript for the course. The only exception to this policy will be made when a student exceeds the maximum number of allowable days absent as a result of severe personal or family medical problems (as certified by the attending physician), school business, or other extenuating circumstances as determined by the principal and/or assistant principal.
- Students who are 18 years old or older may be denied credit in their classes prior to being absent 15 days when there is evidence of lack of cooperation relative to this policy and acknowledgment that future attendance would not be meaningful. School suspension will not be counted against the students’ maximum allowable 15 days absence.
