Half Hollow Hills Central School District World Language Independent Study Program Registration for 2012- 2013 September 19, 2012 Dear Students and Parents, The Independent Study Program in World Languages offers our students a unique opportunity to study languages not part of our regular academic offerings. The classes are scheduled once a week from 2:30 PM until 3:30 PM. Students who successfully complete their courses will earn one unit of credit; the grade is not included in the class average computation but will appear on the student’s permanent record. Grades from the World Language Independent Study Program are included on the report card. Students are expected to attend each session and sign an attendance record to verify attendance at each class session. Poor attendance affects student achievement and will result in his/her removal from the program. Courses could be cancelled due to insufficient enrollment and /or poor student attendance. The courses will be offered at the high school where the enrollment is the highest for that particular course. Students are expected to devote the time to master the curriculum, prepare homework assignments and study for examinations. There are no make-up classes. Appropriate classroom behavior is expected of all our students. By signing the registration form, you indicate that you understand and accept the conditions of the World Language Independent Study Program. If further information is needed, please contact Mr. Fratto at 592-3189 or at ffratto@hhh.k12.ny.us. All forms must be returned to the student’s GUIDANCE COUNSELOR by Friday, October 5th. Sincerely,
Francesco L. Fratto Director of World Languages and English as a Second Language
