When a student is absent for an extended time, the parents/guardians and school administration should discuss the effect of the absence on the student's academic progress and continued enrollment. The school may issue an incomplete or withhold official grades.
Arrangements are then made on a case by case basis that will meet the child's needs and must be reasonable and manageable for the school staff. The principal consults with the pastor and the Regional Superintendent for Catholic Schools regarding the appropriate organization and expectations for instruction and learning. Homeroom teachers are also involved regarding continued grading and reporting of progress as well as providing materials, and will maintain communication with parents as needed.
