High School Attendance Policy and Procedures from freemexy's blog

There is a strong correlation between a student's attendance and their grade in a class. For this reason, we encourage students to be in school to greatest degree possible. There are times, however, when it is not appropriate for a student to be in class. Please read our attendance policy and reminders below to understand fully. If you should have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to the High School Office.high school Shanghai

Policy: 

If a student must miss school, due to illness or official appointments, the family must notify the school by phone. Each morning, the secretaries contact the families of children who are reported absent but for whom no notification of their absence was received. (High School Academic & Co-curricular Handbook 2019-2020, p. 42)

Reminders:

In cases of fever, vomiting or diarrhea, students must be symptom free for 24 hours before returning to school. 

Attendance is required for semester exams, Monday, December 9 to Thursday, December 12.

Pre-Planned Absences:

Families must notify the HS Office two weeks in advance of engaging in family-planned travel resulting in absence from school.

Students will complete the Blue Planned Absence From, available in the HS Office, to make arrangements with their teachers for the learning and work that will be missed during their absence. 

Students who exceed the 7 allowable absences in a course run the risk of not earning credit for that course.
