Truancy. A student who is absent from school without an acceptable excuse three full days in one school year or is tardy or absent for more than any 30 minute period during the school day on three occasions in one school year, or any combination thereof, is a truant and shall be reported to the attendance office or superintendent of the public school district. In the event that the school suspects that a student is truant (absent from school, without an acceptable excuse), the school administration will contact the parent or guardian. If the school suspects that the student is a habitual truant (absent three times in a school year, without an acceptable excuse) and all resources at the school level have been exhausted, the school principal will notify the local public Child Welfare and Attendance authorities.
Truancy. A student is considered truant when absent from the classroom without the knowledge of either the school or the parent or if the parent does not compel the student to attend school.
Truancy. Lesson absence will result in a sanction. Repeat offences will prompt a meeting with the Head of Sixth Form and a letter/email home.

Student Conduct and Eligibility General principles of conduct and eligibility ● Conduct rules are in effect for all twelve months of the year and a new agreement must be submitted each year. ● Violations will result in the suspension of eligibility. ● Suspension from athletics is based on a percentage of contests. Suspension from all other co-curricular activities is based on specific events that the co-curricular activity may sponsor or attend. Please see chart on page 14. ● Consequences may increase with repeated offenses. Code of Conduct Violations Unacceptable Conduct Certain conduct by any participant is absolutely unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Examples of such unacceptable conduct include, but are not limited to, theft, vandalism, disrespect, hazing, harassment, violation of alcohol, tobacco and illegal substances restrictions, major infractions of the Student Code of Conduct, or violations of law. This unacceptable conduct rule shall be in force twelve months of the year. This means a student may be penalized or punished if he/she engages in unacceptable conduct during the school term, over a holiday break, or while school is out of session. This also means that the school district may impose sanctions for unacceptable conduct which occurs at school, at a school sponsored event, or off school grounds. The penalty for engaging in unacceptable conduct can include revocation of the privilege of participating in extracurricular activities.

Depictions of such actions on social networking sites such as Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube or any other similar Web sites are prohibited. ● Hazing: any action that humiliates, degrades, abuses, or endangers another person, regardless of that person’s willingness to participate.

Truancy. Ensuring consistent attendance is crucial for maintaining a quality education, and we take truancy very seriously. A habitual truant is defined as a student who has had at least 5 unexcused absences, or absences for which the reasons are unknown, in a calendar month or 10 unexcused absences, or absences for which the causes are unknown, within a 90-calendar-day period. When a student is truant, this demonstrates a disregard for their education, and immediate consequences will follow. Please note that no credit will be recorded for any work missed due to truancy. After 3 unexcused absences: The parent/legal guardian will be requested to have a conference with the school administrator. If the school cannot reach the parent/guardian after two reasonable attempts, a notice will be sent by certified mail, and a return receipt will be requested. After 7 unexcused absences: The school administrator will notify the parent/legal guardian that the student has only three unexcused absences remaining before violating the state attendance requirements. After 10 unexcused absences: The school administrator will send a letter to the parent/legal guardian regarding attendance, and a referral will be made to the school social worker.
