Varsity Show
The music boosters and marching band are gearing up for our annual Varsity Show and you are invited to join in the excitement! Our kids have worked extremely hard all season long and we are very excited to end our season with these culminating performances that will take place on November 8th, 9th, and 10th.
General Policies
Regular attendance is key to success in school and is a positive factor that develops habits of punctuality, self-discipline, and responsibility. Students who attend class regularly generally achieve higher grades, enjoy school, and are more employable after leaving school.
Excused Absences:
Personal illness of the student (A doctor’s excuse stating for what days specifically the student should be excused from school may be required by the school for every absence over 72 hours. Once a doctor’s excuse is required, it is required for all absences for the remainder of the year).
Illness in the home (student must be 14 years of age or older).
Quarantine of the home by local health officials.
Death of a relative (limited to three days unless reasonable cause can be shown for a longer absence).
Observance of a religious holiday (consistent with the student’s established creed or belief).
Alternate learning experience approved in advance by an administrator.
A maximum of two (2) college visits for juniors and seniors to take place during the regular school year. These are extensions of the school day and are not counted in the attendance record. These absences must be approved five days in advance.
Reporting Absences:
- The morning of the absence, a parent/guardian should inform the office of the absence and the reason.
- An absence note or email, containing the dates and reason for the absence, signed by the parent or guardian or physician must be presented to the office within three (3) days of the student returning to school.
- Failure to produce an acceptable note from a parent or guardian within three (3) school days following an absence will result in an unexcused absence.
*Please see the student / parent handbook for the attendance policy and procedures
