PROBATION

At the end of each term, if a student is below average in academic subjects, behavior or work habits, she/he may be placed on probation for the following term. In that event, the parents and students will be required to sign a probationary contract. Non-compliance with the standards set by the contract may prevent the child’s continued attendance at  Saint Jane Frances School.


RETENTION POLICY

A teacher may recommend that a child be retained. The decision will be based upon a consideration of the overall welfare of the student, i.e., by carefully weighing academic, emotional and social factors. With the approval of the principal, the teacher will inform parents regularly of the student’s progress or possibility of retention. If a parent disagrees with the retention, it may be advised that the parents will need to seek other placement for the child. Students may also be required to attend summer school or receive tutoring and take a proficiency test at the end of summer in order to be promoted. St. Jane Frances does not have a summer school program, however you will be notified in March if your child(ren) is in danger of being required to attend summer school. You will be notified by May if your child(ren) is required to attend.​
