Every
day that a student is absent four percentage points are deducted from the
attendance grade. If a student
wishes to return those four points for an EXCUSED absence, the student must
write a one-page paper describing the importance of one of the subjects learned
in school to life as an adult. This
paper is to be turned in to Mr. Pricher and will restore credit in all four
academic classes. There is no
deadline for this report as there is for assigned work. Assigned work must be turned in no later
than one calendar week from the day the student returns to class.
