Probation Policy
Any student having a grade of D or below in Behavior after one academic trimester will be placed on disciplinary probation until the beginning of next trimester. At that time, the student must have earned a Behavior grade of C- or higher to be removed from probation. If a student fails to raise the Behavior grade to a C- or higher, an agreement must be made with the student and parent/guardian. This may include counseling, enrollment in another school more suited to the student’s needs, or other action deemed necessary by the Discipline Board.
Academic Probation
Any student in grades 4 - 8 having two grades below a C- (70 %) in an academic trimester will be placed on Academic Probation. If the student has improved to better than a D (69.9%), he/she will be removed from academic probationary status pending the student obtaining verbal approval from his/her teacher and principal. The parent should email the teacher/principal to confirm the removal from probation.
If the student fails to raise his/her grade(s) to above a D, provisions will be made with the student and the student’s parents that will better facilitate his/her education. This may include tutoring, enrollment in another school more suited to that student’s particular needs, or other action deemed necessary by the principal, faculty and parents.
Academic probation prohibits the student from participating in any extra-curricular activities during the probation period. This includes, but is not limited to, any athletic team or service organization (Student Council, Sports Awards Night, etc.) Academic probation lasts as long as the student has two grades below a C- (69.9%).
