Attendance
Students are required to attend regularly and punctually the school in which they are enrolled. Please refer to the current calendar for student days of attendance.
Truancy
Any student who has attained the age of six but has not reached their eighteenth birthday, who has been absent from school without a valid excuse for three days or more, or tardy without a valid excuse on three days or more, is truant. Any student who has been reported as a truant two or more times is a habitual truant.
Educational Enhancement Opportunity
Students shall be granted an excused absence for up to ten (10) school days to pursue an educational enhancement opportunity determined by the Principal to be of significant educational value. This opportunity may include, but not be limited to, participation in an educational foreign exchange program or an intensive instructional, experiential, or performance program in one (1) of the core curriculum subjects of English, science, mathematics, social studies, foreign language, and the arts. Unless the Principal determines that extenuating circumstances exist, requests for date(s) falling within State or District testing periods shall not be granted.
