It's a throwback night @ The Lou this evening. PEPAA is throwing it back to the "Powder Blues" of the 80's!! Stop by the PEPAA tent at the main gate this evening and grab your t-shirts (and we may have a couple hoodies). We will have order forms in case we run out of sizes.
Happy 2023-2024 School Year! This is just a reminder our school theme for this year is "Be Present to Win." Attendance Matters! Here is a review of our attendance guidelines...(full attendance policy can be found on our online Student Handbook under the page “Attendance Policy and Rules”)
Attendance:
Medical notes are the ONLY excused absence that will NOT count towards truancy, extra-curricular activities, and/or credit denial/grade promotion.
Notes written by parents of students who are ill, still count towards their total number of absences.
Excessive absenteeism is anything that goes over 14 days of either excused and/or unexcused absences.
Once a student reaches a total of 10 unexcused and/or excused absences they will receive a letter from administration outlining the consequences of exceeding the acceptable limit.
At a total of 15 absences either excused or unexcused students will be denied access to extra/co-curricular activities, in addition to possible credit denial/possible grade retention. In addition students who are deemed excessively tardy with 20 lateness or more to school will receive the same consequences as described for excessively absent.
Attendance Extra/Co-Curricular Activities:
All students who wish to participate in an extra/co-curricular event/activity MUST be in attendance the day of or preceding the event. Students are not permitted to be dismissed early the day of the prom. The only expectation would be for a medical note.
Students who have been suspended, have been determined to be excessively absent (as described above), and/or excessively tardy will not be permitted to participate in the following activities:
Any dance - Including Homecoming and Prom.
Field Trips – Including the Senior Class Trip
All sports and/or clubs (all extra-curricular activities)
Students who attend extra and co-curricular events must be in academic good standing and have no suspensions for one calendar month prior to the extra/co-curricular event.
Truancy Charges:
Truancy charges will be filed with the municipal court at 10 unexcused absences for all students ages 16 and under according to state law.
Students will need to complete credit completion for unexcused days exceeding 14 days in order to regain credit for courses they are passing.
Please provide doctor’s notes for any medical issues (within 10 days following the absence).
Lateness:
Students who are late to school must report to the main office to get a pass. Students will receive an administrative detention for every 5th lateness they receive throughout the school year.
Any student who is late 6 times to a class period will be written up for an administrative detention.
Truancy Charges will be filed with the municipal court at 20 times late to school, for all students ages 16 and under.
In addition, all students who exceed 20 times late to school will be reviewed by the attendance committee, students may be denied credit for excessive time out of class, even with a passing grade--students MUST report to school on time.
