PERMITTED ABSENCES:
(Must be prearranged)Absence from school for a family trip other than an emergency is greatly discouraged. In almost all cases, the student's grades can suffer from being absent from regular classroom activity. In some cases, advance (prearranged) approval for a permitted absence can be obtained from the Principal.
Attendance records will be reviewed before a permitted absence is granted by the Administration. Excessive absences (cumulative excused and unexcused in excess of 5 days) may lead to the Permitted Absence being denied. No more than 3 days will be permitted for a prearranged Permitted Absence. Anything more than 3 days will be unexcused, and you may be asked to withdraw your child from school if the time is more than 10 days. Students may re-register upon their return. Only one permitted absence form will be approved each year.
