Students who are suspended from school may not participate in any co-curricular or extra-curricular activities during the day or evening of the suspension date(s).

Students who are suspended from school may not be on school property or at any school-sponsored events until their suspension period has been completed. 

Makeup privileges for work missed during the suspension will be granted in accordance with rules governing other absences. It is the student's responsibility to communicate with their teachers during the suspension period to secure the missed work and make arrangements to make up tests or quizzes that were missed.
