<strong>Student</strong> Responsibilities<br />

• It is the responsibility of the student to contact the teacher to make arrangements for securing<br />

make-up work, materials, or clarification on make-up assignments (page 21)<br />

• <strong>Student</strong>s must submit any work assigned prior to their absence by the end of the first school day of<br />

their return (page 24)<br />

• <strong>Student</strong>s must be prepared to complete any quizzes, tests, or presentations at the start of the next<br />

class they attend (page 25)<br />

• Secondary students with five or more unexcused absences in any class during a<br />

quarter/term/advisory shall receive a grade reduction in that subject (page 26)<br />

• Secondary students with 10 or more unexcused absences in any class during a single advisory shall<br />

receive a grade of “FA” in that subject (page 26)<br />

• Secondary students accumulating 30 or more unexcused absences in a course within a full school<br />

year shall receive a failing final grade in that course.<br />

• <strong>Student</strong>s may appeal failing grades (due to absences) to the principal (page 26)<br />

• Grades may be appealed if parents believe a computational or procedural error has occurred; or if a<br />

student believes that a final grade is based on instructor or clerical error, prejudice, inaccuracy, or<br />

misalignment with established grading criteria in the course syllabus (page 29)<br />
