PROGRESSIVE DISCIPLINE PLAN TO SUPPORT BHS CARDINAL BEHAVIOR EXPECTATIONS

 

Attendance expectations:

1) Student absent on a due-date will be expected to present assignment the day of return; if due dates were public prior to absent and they occur on date of return, student will be expected to present assignment (Teachers…you can provide guidance in your syllabus if conflicting)

2) Students shall not travel on a field trip if an unexcused absence occurs the DAY BEFORE the field trip.

3) Once a student accrues 15 absences, excused or unexcused, the student will NOT be allowed to participate in fieldtrips.

4) Senior contract will be provided to all seniors on January 4. It will stipulate attendance and behavior expectations required to participate in the graduation commencement.

5) Revocation of driver’s license or permit or the inability to acquire will occur when a student has more than ten (10) consecutive or fifteen (15) reported unexcused absences during any semester. In order to qualify for reclaiming a driver’s permit or license, the student must make a passing grade in at least three (3) full unit subjects or their equivalency at the conclusion of a subsequent grading period.
