<p>Any student who is absent for any reason (excused or unexcused) for 15 or more days in a semester (two quarters) will be considered for loss of credit. The principal will make the determination with consideration to the student’s attitude, quality of work when the student is present, quantity and quality of makeup work completed, and the nature of the absences. In extreme circumstances such as surgery, visa travel, and other uncontrollable family emergencies, students and their families may request an absence extension. Ask your principal for more details.</p> <p>Any student who is absent for any reason (excused or unexcused) for 15 or more days in a semester (two quarters) will be considered for loss of credit.

<h3>Absence Due to Early Departure Or Late Arrival</h3> <h3>Absence Due to Early Departure Or Late Arrival</h3>
<p>Parents should contact the principal preferably at least one month in advance if their child will be arriving to school late in the year or leaving early due to unchangeable events. Provided that the absence meets standards set by the administrative team, and is within a one-quarter time frame, the Leadership Team will coordinate with teachers to maintain the student’s education during that time. If the student will be absent more than 15 days, then the family will be given resources to continue education in a homeschool manner. If the absence will be less than 15 days, then the student may continue to study using the same resources and the same lesson access, as it is possible to make these resources available, as the remainder of the class who are present in the classroom. Some courses may not be able to be completed by extension; In this case, the student would need to complete all expectations prior to leaving for the trip or make up all expectations upon arriving late to school Or the student would lose credit for the course.</p> <p>Parents should contact the principal preferably at least one month in advance if their child will be arriving to school late in the year or leaving early due to unchangeable events.

<h3>Absence Due to Illness</h3> <h3>Absence Due to Illness</h3>
<p>In any absence due to illness, it is the responsibility of the parents to contact the school’s main office or email the student’s teachers directly as soon as possible for the student to be considered excused from school. Should the parent/student determine that their illness was mild and not contagious (i.e. headache) and they want to return later in the school day, the parent must still contact the office as soon as possible for the student to be excused. Our classes are negatively affected by absences and we must give teachers immediate notice to enable them to change lesson plans. Upon arriving at school late, the student must report to the nurse to be cleared to attend class. In any case, if the office is not notified the student will be considered unexcused wherein the student will not be allowed to make up missed work. If the parents call the office or email the teacher directly and the student is excused, it is then the student’s responsibility to meet with his/her teachers to get make-up work assignments. The student will be given a make-up period equal to the number of school days missed plus one, in which to complete the work.</p> <p>In any absence due to illness, it is the responsibility of the parents to fill out the absence report and email the student’s teachers directly as soon as possible for the student to be considered excused from school.

<h3>Planned Absences</h3> <h3>Planned Absences</h3>
<p>Planned absence should be announced to all teachers of the student by email and by in person Forms must be completed and signed by all teachers. Missed work will be due upon return, unless advance arrangements are made. Failure to make advance arrangements may result in an unexcused absence, and applicable grade reductions.</p> <p>Planned absences should be announced to all teachers of the student by email and by in person Forms must be completed and signed by all teachers.

<h3>Excused and Unexcused Absences</h3> <h3>Excused and Unexcused Absences</h3>
<p>Many other situations may cause student absences. The following examples are types of absences that are generally considered excused when notice is given in advance by parents: Visa appointments, doctor/dental appointments, college fairs, CRICS events, family events, etc. The following examples are types of absences that are generally considered unexcused: working on other classwork, returning late after leaving campus without prior parental notice, failure to deliver proper excuse from a parent or guardian, etc. Unexcused absences do not allow the student to complete makeup work or to participate in extracurricular activities that day. The principal will make the final determination whether an absence will be excused and what effect that will have on classes and eligibility for extracurricular activities. Generally, a student who misses a class due to an unexcused absence will not be allowed to complete the assignments from that class period for credit. They will receive a zero score for any missed activities and/or assignments.</p> <p>Many other situations may cause student absences.
