In no situation may a student miss more than three (3) days per 120-hour course,  two (2) days per 60-hour course, or one (1) day per 40-hour course. If that number has been exceeded, the student will not receive a passing grade and will not receive credit for the course.  

In order for an absence to be excused, it must be approved by the Summer  School Principal, Tim Badenhop at 297-5328.  

If the absence is not excused, all credit will be lost for that day with no opportunity for make-up. The following absences will be considered excused:  

• Personal illness
• Family emergency 

The following absences will be NOT be considered excused and will NOT be  considered family emergencies (and will result in lost credit for that day with no  opportunity for make-up):  

• Family vacation
• Camp, practice, competition, or work  (Please note that summer camps for your sports teams are not considered excused. If a student plans to attend the summer camp with the team, the student should sign up for a Summer School session that does not conflict with the camp.)
• Doctor (or other) appointments (these should be scheduled before or after Summer School hours)  

There are many other types of absences not listed above that may be considered unexcused. If the absence does not fall under the “excused”  category above, it will be considered “unexcused”.  

A student will be permitted to be tardy to class no more than three (3) times per 60-hour course (or two (2) times per 40-hour course). If that number has been exceeded, the student will not receive a passing grade and will not receive credit for the course.  

Tardiness of fifteen 15 minutes or more will be counted as one-half (1/2)  day of absence.
