Extended Absences
When, for family reasons, parents wish to take their children out of school temporarily, the principal and teacher will discuss with the parents the possible effects of such an absence. If a student is absent for 15 days or more, official grades may be withheld.
If a student will be absent for an extended period of time, assignments can be completed upon the student’s return to school with prior approval from the Principal. The student is responsible for all missed class work/homework assignments during his/her absence. Requests for missings homework should be made in writing directly to the teacher and will typically be provided after (not before) the extended absence. Please allow ample time for the teacher to receive and respond to the request.
