If possible, please make appointments after school hours.

Students exceeding (5) absences per trimester will be required to make up (1) hour of academic recovery time for each absence, after school, in the Student Support Center.

Division of Children Youth and Families and/or lose the right to participate in extracurricular activities.
Students who are absent from school must work with their teachers to make up work within a reasonable amount of time. Parents and/or students may email teacher to request work for the day of their absence.
Students who are absent, tardy or dismissed early from school may not be allowed to attend school-sponsored events after school, on the day of their absence, tardiness or dismissal. Exceptions will be made for students who produce a note from a medical/mental health professional providing evidence of the student’s need to be out of school.
