ATTENDANCE EXPECTATIONS AND PROCEDURES 24 Hour Absence Report Hotline: (714) 567-4932 Successful students attend school regularly, with few or no absences. This includes excused and unexcused absences. Strong attendance promotes learning and a sense of personal responsibility in the student and is imperative for academic achievement.
WIN - “What I Need” Saturday Program: Attending a WIN Saturday makes up for one full day absence. It is the student’s opportunity to “Do the Right Thing!”
Students are expected to: Be on time to Every class, Every day, Ready to learn!
Excessive Absences: Any student who is exceeding 3 or more absences per year is considered excessive and will be notified via district letter. Unexcused Absences and Grades: Teachers are not obligated to provide schoolwork or tests for unexcused absences. Unexcused absences may lower a student’s progress grade. Excessive unexcused absences may result in an “F” grade in classes for the semester. Reasons for Absences: All students are required to be in school every day unless: Personal illness (school may require doctor’s note and will require doctor’s verification excuse when school deems absences are excessive); exclusion for medical reasons (not to exceed 5 days); funeral services of parent, sibling, grandparent, or member of the immediate household. The district does not give permission for a student to be absent for any reason not listed above. All absences for reasons other than those identified above will be deemed unexcused. Timely Explanation of Absences (Absence Notes): All unverified absences automatically change to “unexcused” or “truant” after 48 hours from the absence. Parents shall notify the Attendance Office on the day of the absence to report the student’s absence and are required to verify all absences no later than 48 hours after the absence either in person, by telephone at the 24-Hour Hotline at (714) 567-4932, by Fax at (714) 285-4699, or by making sure the student brings in a parent note and/or official documentation to the Attendance Office. If a student is absent due to a field trip or other school related activity, it is the student’s responsibility to turn in their Excuse Slip for School Field Trip or School Activity to the Attendance Office no later than 48 hours after the activity has taken place. The office staff updates the attendance record based on the timely explanation.
COMPULSORY EDUCATION Students are expected to attend school every day. Education Code 48290 sets out the basic authorization for the County District Attorney to hold parents accountable when they do not compel their school-age children to attend school. Mandatory attendance is the law. Truancy: Any student who is absent from school without a valid excuse for more than three days or is tardy in excess of 30 minutes more than three days in one school year is considered a truant. Parents will be notified by letter upon their student’s classification as a truant or habitual truant. Recent legislation permits the court to have the driver’s license of a student who has been declared a habitual truant suspended, restricted or delayed. School Attendance Review Board (SARB): Any student who violates any of the above will be recommended to attend a SARB hearing. A SARB hearing is an official hearing attended by the family/caregiver of the student and officials of the city and the SAUSD, to include the District Attorney’s Office, Santa Ana Police Department, SAUSD Administration and a SAHS representative.

THE WAY OF THE SAINTS
●
Santa Ana High School has developed EXPECTATIONS for student conduct, known as the Way of the Saints. Students are expected to live the tenets of the Way of the Saints at all times, in order to maintain a safe and positive environment for ALL on our campus. These tenets are:
●
Hats, caps and beanies that are not SAHS approved (approved hats/caps/beanies must be removed inside all buildings and classrooms). Hoods worn over the head
ELECTRONIC DEVICES The use of electronic devices during school hours is acceptable when indicated by the teacher for educational purposes, otherwise all electronic devices and earbuds must be turned off and put away into a pocket, purse or backpack when in the classroom. The school is not responsible for these items if lost, stolen, or damaged.
HANDBALL Acceptance: Welcome and understand diversity Integrity: Do the right thing, even when no one is watching Respect: Treat others the way you want to be treated Responsibility: Be accountable for your thoughts and actions
Handball may only be played before school, during lunch and after school across from Building 5. The expectation is that students will play safely and respectfully, and stop play when people are walking by.
MEDICATION
The school wide matrix is inside the front cover. You will also fill in a classroom matrix for each of your classes.
DRESS/CLOTHING EXPECTATIONS Expectations apply to all students when they are on campus or at any school-sponsored activity. Expectations are established with campus safety in mind. Students may be sent home, require a parent conference, and/or be assigned to attend the WIN Saturday Program for violations of the school and/or district expectations. The school district grants authority to SAHS to modify the dress/clothing expectations during the school year as necessary, especially in regards to gang-related apparel (Ed Code 35294.1)
Inappropriate Clothing/Accessories ●
●
●
●
Clothing/accessories that have references to alcohol, drugs, paraphernalia, weapons, or other harmful substances and items.

State law forbids school personnel from dispensing medication, including aspirin, without the written order of a doctor and the permission of the parent/legal guardian. All prescription drugs must be left in the Nurse’s Office, marked with the student’s name, the name of the drug and a copy of the doctor’s instructions for use. Over the counter medication, such as aspirin, may be carried by the student ONLY if accompanied by a note from the parent/legal guardian. Nondocumented medication, both prescription and over the counter, will be confiscated until a note from the parent/legal guardian is received by the Nurse’s Office.
HALL PASSES Students are not to be released from class the first 10 minutes of class and the last 10 minutes of class.
