Class Attendance

Class attendance is expected of all students. Teachers will outline their specific attendance policies during the opening meeting of the class. These attendance expectations are also to be included in the course syllabus.

Students who find it necessary to be absent because of illness or for other reasons should notify their teacher before the class period. Students missing class or arriving late assume responsibility for communicating with the teacher. Teachers may on occasion require students to secure verification of reasons for absence.

Faculty and staff wishing to take students off-campus for field trips, conferences, tours, athletic competitions, etc., must submit a roster to the Student Services Office at least one week in advance. Teachers are encouraged to make arrangements to accept course work and administer examinations ahead of time, but maintain the freedom to accept make-up work.
