Extended Absences
When a student is absent for an extended time, the school may withhold official grades. The school process and policy for extended absences will be decided on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the particular situation of the student and their family.
At Saint Anne School, 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 an extended time, (ex: 15 or more days), official grades may be withheld. A student absent from school because of a television or movie contract is considered as an ordinary absentee and is marked as such in the Attendance Register.
Excessive absences may result in the loss of academic credit. An official report card will not be issued if the child exceeds 15 absences in the trimester. If a report card is not issued in two or more trimesters in one academic year then the student will not be promoted to the next grade level at our school.
