OLYMPIC DAY PARTICIPATION EXPECTATIONS - EFFECTIVE BEGINNING 9/28/15 - Update
Many of our students are getting excited about the upcoming Olympic days. In September, we began communicating our expectations for them to be eligible to participate in our Olympic festivities. We will be meeting with students who are ineligible or who are in danger of becoming ineligible over the next two weeks. We will also communicate with parents of these students to inform them of their status. Students who are ineligible will have a structured day planned for them.
1. Students may not accumulate more than 7 Level 1 or 2 behavior incidents for the school year (including bus behavior).
2. Students may not accumulate ANY Level 3 behavior incident for the school year (including bus behavior).
3. Students may not have more than 5 UNEXCUSED absences for the school year.
4. Students must be in good academic standing by passing 5 of 6 scheduled classes.
