Periods 3, 4 and 5 are lunch periods ATTENDANCE Attendance at school is mandated by State Law. The following policies should be followed: 1. Classrooms will be opened by 8:00 a.m. The warning bell will sound at 8:10 a.m. Roll will be taken at 8:15 a.m. 2. Anyone entering first period after 8:15 a.m. is late. Students reporting after 8:15 a.m. must have a pass or detention slip from the Main Office. Lateness will be handled as a disciplinary matter. 3. If absence is necessary: a. On date of absence, a parent or guardian must contact the school between 7:30 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. giving a valid reason for the student's absence. Call 410-485-5000, ext. 201. b. Upon returning to school after an absence, the student must report to the Main Office. There he is required to present an excuse written by a parent, guardian or physician explaining his absence. The student’s name should appear on the note. If a student is absent for three (3) or more days, they must have a release from their health care provider to return to school. This medical release should include activity level, and any special accommodations. The doctor’s note may be sent to school with your son, emailed, or faxed to the Main Office. Please notify the Health Office if your son has a major surgery, injury, or condition that will keep him out of school for more than three days. 4. Since consistent attendance is integral to the student's comprehensive mastery of subject matter, excessive absence is a serious matter. Even if occasioned by illness or other legitimate reason, the following absence policy will be followed: a. At the 5th absence, a student’s absentee record will be reviewed by the Administration and the Counseling Department. The student’s parents or guardians will be contacted by the Counseling Department. b. At the 10th absence, a student’s absentee record will be reviewed by the Administration and the Counseling Department. The student’s parents or guardians will be contacted by the Assistant Principal of Student Affairs. c. At a student’s 15th absence, the Principal, Assistant Principal and Student’s School Counselor will meet with the student and his parents/guardians. A contract may result. 5. Truancy is a disciplinary matter and will be treated accordingly (see Truancy, p. 41).
