School Absences
As stated in our Parent Handbook, "Because of the nature of the classroom learning experience, it is our policy not to provide textbooks or homework assignments prior to the vacation period when school is in session."
This policy is to discourage families from taking their vacations during regular school days. The student can make up anything missed upon their return to school, or complete any digital assignments posted for the days that they are out.
