The district has instituted new promotion requirements this year. The grades in English and mathematics in the eighth grade must be C or higher. These requirements must be met by June if a student expects to participate in the graduation ceremony. A student who has not met the promotion or graduation requirements and for whom intervention has not been successful will be retained how an entire year unless that student has been recommended for assign-ment too the next grade by the Student Study Team. When a student is absent, it is the student's responsibility to approach the teacher for any assignments or tests missed and receive instructions for making them up.
Computerized attendance is taken every period.
If you are unable to come to school for any reason, your parent or guardian is to telephone the School Attendance Office before 9 a.m. on the day of the absence. 644-6098 is the school's attendance line. Messages may be left 24 hours a day. If no parent phone call has been received, a written excuse from your parent should be brought to the Attendance Office. It is your responsibility to make sure your absences are cleared within two days of the absence.
