Absence Policy
*Players are responsible for communicating and coordinating absences with the coach.
*It is expected that absences will be kept to a bare minimum during the regular season.
*Multiple absences (exceeding 5) may result in dismissal from the team.
Excused Absences

- any absence that has received prior approval from the head coach
- Scheduled absences must be approved in advance.

Unexcused Absences
Unexcused Absences
- Unexcused absences include (but are not limited to)...
- any absence that has NOT received prior approval from the head coach
- family vacations
- jobs (as players can request to work times that do not conflict with volleyball)
- repetitive conflicts
- taking the ACT/SAT
- exception: Seniors who still need to achieve a particular score for college admissions or scholarships
