Excused Absence: Students must listen to the audio-tape of the class missed and write a one-page summary in order to recieve full credit for the absence. Those who have an excused absence but do not make up the class by tape will receive a "one increment" grade deduction (i.e. A to A-)

Unexcused Absence: An unexcused absence will lower the final grade by "one full grade". However, if the class is made up by tape, the grade is only lowered by one increment (i.e. A to A-)

For all absences, student need to fill out the Absence Authorization Form available in the front office. This form completed, along with the one-page summary is to be turned in to the Absence Authorization box in the fornt office. In addition, any homework that was due the day of the absence should be included as well. This mucst be completed and submitted within two weeks of the absence.

Tardies:
For every two tardis there will be a "one increment" grade deduction, no execptions. (i.e. A to A-)
