Adopted: 8/13/97
Grade reduction or credit denial determinations may include student attendance. Student attendance may not be a sole criterion. However, if attendance is a factor, prior to a grade reduction or credit denial, the following shall occur:
- The teacher will identify how the attendance and class participation is related to the instructional goals of the subject or course;
- Parents and students will be informed;
- Procedures in due process are available to the student when the grade is reduced or credit denied for attendance rather than academic reasons;
- Reasons for non-attendance are considered and the grade is not reduced or credit denied based upon absences due to:
- Religious reasons;
- A student’s disability; or
- An excused absence, as determined by the district’s policy.
