All students need to be present on last day of school.  If student is not present when exam is given they will receive a zero.  There is no refund of fees due to attendance failure.     

Tardy Policy

Two (2) times tardy less than 10 minutes each = one (1) day absence.

One (1) tardy greater than 10 minutes= one day absence.
