Vacation Policy

Although the decision to take a family vacation while school is in session is left to parental discretion, these vacations are discouraged. Children who are absent because of vacations miss valuable classroom instruction which cannot be replaced. The procedures regarding vacations during school time are:

• A note stating the reason and the travel dates must be sent to the student’s homeroom teacher at least one week prior to the vacation.
• Advance assignments will not be given to any student prior to the vacationvWork which the student has missed will be gathered during his/her absence and will be given to the student when he/she returns to school.
• All make-up work will be due within a reasonable amount of time, to be determined by the teacher (not to exceed 10 class days).
• Students will be given ample notification by the teacher as to make-up dates for quizzes or tests missed during vacation.
