Attendance & Independent Study

Daily attendance is critical to the education and social success of each and every student. Consistent attendance helps students stay engaged and motivated in their studies, fostering a positive attitude towards learning. Regular attendance enables students to keep up with the pace of instruction, participate in class discussions, and complete assignments on time. In addition, consistent school attendance provides opportunities to develop social skills, build relationships with peers, and participate in extracurricular activities, promoting overall well-being. 

Short Term Independent Study

Independent Study may be requested if your child is unable to attend school due to an event or family situation. Short term independent studies are those that are fewer than 15 days. Independent Studies are not approved for the school days during the first and last two weeks of an academic year. Through a signed contract, the child under the guidance of the parent, agrees to complete the classwork assignments, projects and homework for the five or more days of missed attendance. Upon grading and approval that all assignments have been completed satisfactorily, the teacher will note the successful completion of the Independent Study Work. Forms are available from the school administrative assistant.
