MAKE UP WORK PROCEDURE

When you have been absent from a class you must have a white make-up slip to get back into the class again. You must get this make up slip the day you come back to school and your work is due at the scheduled time.  Due date is at the teacher discretion.

   1.  Report to the principal for the make-up slip before the first period.  You must bring an excuse with the reason for your absence from your parents.

   2.  Get your make-up work from each teacher, return the work and have the teacher sign the make-up slip so you know when you have completed all the work. 

   3.  Your work must be done by the due date.

If a student knows that he/she will be absent, do the following:

   1.  Bring excuse with reason for the absence from parents and get a yellow make-up slip.

   2.  Have your teacher give you your assignments.

   3.  Your work should be done in advance.

   4.  Return the completed make-up slip to the principal or advisor of the activity.

You will be given the same number of days to make up the work as the number of days that you missed.  If you miss more than 25 minutes of a class, you will be counted one-half day absent.

All absences are classified either excused or unexcused.  Excused absences are:

   1.  Illness

   2.  Death in the family

   3.  Doctor or dental appointments that cannot be scheduled outside of school time.

   4.  Family emergencies

   5.  As the principal sees fit

   6.  Students may take one personal day per year for any reason the parents allow but the reason for the absence must be given to the principal with that particular day approved a minimum of one day in advance.  Make-up work must be done ahead of time.  Personal days may not be used during semester test days.

Students may take one church youth trip per semester without it being counted against them for semester tests.

Seniors are given two school days (excused absences) for college visitation during the school year.  These days will not count towards the semester testing schedule.

Students with unexcused absences must make up work.  The students will get an F for the day in each class missed, regardless, so that this F is figured in the average of the nine-weeks grade.

TARDIES

A student is tardy when not in the room when the tardy bell rings.  If a student is tardy for the first class hour, he/she must report to the principal for a tardy slip with a reason for being tardy.  Tardies between classes will be handled by the two teachers involved.  An unexcused tardy will result in a Tuesday morning detention at 7:30 am.
