2 DRESS CODE A student’s appearance should reflect pride and respect for self and for school. Any type of attire which attracts undue attention to the wearer, is torn and ragged, unsafe, or causes a disturbance, is in poor taste and not acceptable. All students should groom and dress themselves neatly in items that are suitable for school activities. No cosmetics or nail polish brought to school. No cosmetics should be worn at school. The following types of clothing are unacceptable: · Halter tops · Midriff shirts · See-through blouses · Large armhole blouses/shirts · Eyelet or fishnet shirts · Tank tops · Very short shorts or skirts · Thong shoes and flip-flops · Hats, scarves, and other head coverings, except for religious or cultural reasons, nside the building. · T-shirts displaying vulgar, obscene, and/or inappropriate pictures and/or writing · Sagging pants that drag the floor or expose skin or undergarments · Picks or combs protruding from the hair · Brass knuckle rings and distracting chains or key-chains · Coats and jackets inside the building · Gang symbols · Sunglasses inside the building ATTENDANCE Students should strive to be in school all day, every day. Consistent FULL-DAY attendance supports students in achieving academic success, graduation, and development into productive members of society. Parents/guardians and students should review the Student Attendance Policy and Student Attendance Procedure to know the rules for excused and unexcused absences for everything from family vacations, college/employer visits, student illness, and the death of a family member. A note is due within 5 days of the student’s return to the building. Parents are allowed 5 excused absences a year with a parent note that doesn’t require doctor documentation. Please note that a Principal excusal for family trips can only be used to cover 3 absences, any additional days associated with the trip will be deducted from the 5 parent days if available. Students who have more than 5 unexcused absences in a marking term must complete an attendance intervention plan to avoid failing the marking term. An attendance intervention plan may involve the student staying after school for up to two hours a day, with parent/guardians responsible for providing transportation home. Student attendance is a FAMILY responsibility. The following steps will be taken when a child’s attendance is deemed excessive: ****eexxccuessseidveanadtteunndeaxncucesewdiallbismepnaccetsstudent’s academic progress • 1 day absent—automatic call • 2 days absent- automatic call; conference with student • 3 days absent- automatic call; letter sent home; HSL will contact parent/guardian • 4 days absent- automatic call; HSL will contact parent/guardians with home visit • h5odmayes. absent- automatic call; student is marked failing for marking term; home visit; intervention plan sent • 6 days absent- automatic call; PPW contacted; PPW referral • 8 days absent- automatic call; SST review and possible behavioral support plan • 10 days absent- automatic call; letter sent referring the matter to outside agencies though Truancy Reduction • 12 days absent-autoatic call; HSL and PPW continue to work together; principal informed
