ABSENCES WITH ACCEPTABLE EXCUSE
The school acknowledges that students may become sick or injured during the school year, which may result in their absence from class.
Acceptable/Excused absences include absences due to illness, medical appointments, and/or family emergency. In the event that a student is absent, parents/gaurdians must provide a written note explaining the absence in order for it to be "excused." Students will be required to make-up any missing assignments and/or complete alternate assignments; this decision at the discretion of each teacher. If an absence is marked as "Unexcused", the student will be required to complete work, however their grade may be impacted.
If a student has been absent for two or more days due to illness, a doctor's note is required for re-admittance to the school. Students that return to school without this note will not be permitted to enter the classroom until their parent has been contacted and/or provides this note.
The school administration reserves the right in all final decisions of whether or not an absence is considered excused or unexcused.
