Religious Holidays

Please let your teacher know if your child will be absent from school for a religious holiday. On religious holidays, teachers will follow these guidelines:

1. Students will be marked "absent-excused" for religious holidays.

2. Teachers will not conduct special or unique activities that will cause those students to miss out on an important curriculum event.

3. Teachers will not administer quizzes/tests on that day.

4. Teachers will keep homework expectations reasonable, and the due date will be extended as needed to allow for religious observances.

5. Teachers will provide opportunity and time to make up any work missed on that day.

6. Teachers will give extra help and additional support to those who require such attention.

7. Teachers will not require projects or long term assignments due on the day of, or the day after, a religious holiday.
