ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES
ABSENCES
A student who misses more than nine days within a semester will not receive a passing grade for the semester in accordance with Florida Statute unless: a. Absences are for the observation of religious holidays, in which students may request prior approval to be absent from school for personal and family observance. b. Absences are due to court appearances. c. Absences are due to a doctor and/or medical physician visit. The physician must provide the school with written verification of when the visit occurred and for how long the absence from school is permitted. d. Absences are for an approved school activity. Note: A student must be in attendance a minimum of four (4) hours of instructional time to be considered present for that day. On the day of a school event, students must be in attendance a minimum of four (4) hours in order to participate in extra-curricular activities. A student must be in class for 30 minutes in order to be counted present for that class.
TARDY TO SCHOOL
TARDY POLICY
All students tardy to school must go to the attendance office for admittance. Students who exceed 3 tardies in a semester will receive a parent/guardian call and a dean’s detention. Each additional offense will result in ISS and parent/guardian call or additional corrective strategies as determined by administration. Any exceptions to this policy must be approved by an administrator. TARDY TO CLASS If a student has not crossed the threshold or in their seats, per teacher policy, when the bell finishes ringing, he/she is considered tardy. Some teachers require students to be in their seats, and this is supported by administration. Students who exceed 3 tardies in a week will receive a lunch detention, dean’s detention and parent phone call, ISS and parent phone call, or additional corrective strategies as determined by administration.
