出席ポリシー

欠席:生徒が1日中クラス/学校に出席しない場合、その生徒は欠席としてマークされます。または学生の場合 時間通りに現れますが、午前11時前に出発します。または、生徒が午前11時以降にクラス/学校に来た場合。

 

遠隔教育では、遅刻は異なります。 一部の学生はテクノロジーやその他のロジスティックの問題を抱えている可能性があるため、これは学生の時間通りのログイン能力に影響を与える可能性があります。 学生がセッション/クラスに少し遅れた場合、私たちは柔軟で理解します。ただし、セッション/クラスに大幅に遅れる場合、および/またはこれが慢性的な問題になる場合、学生は遅刻とマークされます。  

 

出席に関する懸念に対処するには、以下のアクションステップを参照してください。

学期内に3回の欠席/遅刻の後、通知を送信します 

学年度内に7回の欠席/遅刻の後、2回目の通知が送信されます

学年度内に10回の欠席/遅刻の後、この問題に対処するためにあなたとの会議が予定されます

15回以上の欠席後-生徒の出席が改善されない場合、学校は家庭裁判所に教育的怠慢の請願を提出することがあります

 

お子さんが欠席または遅刻する場合は、事前にお子さんの先生にご相談ください。 直接学習を再開する場合は、オフィスに電話して欠席/遅刻を報告してください。

EXCUSED ABSENCE

 

Written documentation must be submitted within three (3) days upon student's return to school and the note from parent or guardian must include the information cited in "A" plus the parent or guardian's signature. The absence should be one of the following reasons:

  • Illness, injury, quarantine (chicken pox, measles, etc.), verifiable by a doctor's note. *A doctor's note is required for 3 or more consecutive days of absence.

  • Doctor/Dental appointment verifiable by a doctor's note

  • Death in the family

  • Court attendance verifiable by a court document

  • Special case approved by the Principal – for example:

  1. Child is seeing their deployed parent off or welcoming them back, the principal may approve this as an excused absence. Notice should be given prior to the event.

  2. Family emergency has occurred and the child must be with the parent for the day, the principal may approve this as excused absence. Parents should call school as soon as possible.

  3. Severe weather condition.

  • Authorized school activities which may include, but are not limited to on-campus activities (ie. Fun Run, parent involvement, meetings, etc.) and off-campus activities (ie: field trips, student council, etc.) 

  • Other activities approved by the Principal or designee prior to the activity or absence.

UNEXCUSED ABSENCE

All student absences not covered above in "Excused Absence." These are events that may occur during the school day, but are considered 'unexcused':

  • Babysitting siblings or other children

  • Caring for the elderly or any family member

  • Entertaining visitors or guests

  • Kept at home to clean house

  • Family vacations (on/off island) trips

  • Parent request without explanation

  • Personal business

  • Youth camp

  • Sports competition events

This is just an example of reason considered "unexcused," other reasons could be taken on a case-by-case basis, however, anything not listed under excused is considered an unexcused absence.

Requesting Homework for Absences

You may request homework when calling the school to notify the office of you child's absence. Parents are encouraged to call the office (733-4750) by 8:30am to report absences and to request homework. Homework may be picked up after school in the office between 2:15-4:00pm. Calling the office to confirm that assignments are available may save you a trip.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Parents, as much as possible, please plan family trips during intersession or holidays. When children miss several days of instruction they have difficulty catching up, progressing and maintaining the rigors of a standards-based education.

  • Parents must notify the school in writing when plans for any extended absences due to family vacation, youth camp, and/or sports competition events (i.e. Little League World Series, etc.) The school administration has the discretion to determine if the extended absence will be excused or unexcused, especially if student academics are adversely affected and/or if attendance is a concern. Parents should meet with the school administration and teacher to discuss educational arrangements.

School Guidelines on Tardies

 

Students who arrive at school after 8:05am are tardy. Students must report to the oe to check in. All excused absence reasons apply. Other reasons must be reviewed by an administrator before the tardy is excused.

EXCUSED TARDY

The student's tardiness is considered excused if the student:

  • Brings a verified doctor/dental, court, or parent note using the same information as with an "excused absence"

  • Brings a doctor's note that is required for 3 or more consecutive tardy days.

  • Is detained by school personnel.

  • Is delayed by the school bus.

  • Is delayed by unusual weather conditions (approved by administration)

UNEXCUSED TARDY

Includes, but are not exclusive of:

  • Overslept/late start

  • Car trouble

  • Missed the bus

  • Babysitting

  • Personal business

TRUANCY

 

"The State of Hawaii Department of Education, defines truancy as unauthorized absences from school. Currently, Section 302A=1135 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes states that if any child of school age persists in absenting oneself from school, the family court judge, upon a proper petition, citation, or complaint being made by the school teacher of any other officer of the department, or police officer, or other person, shall cuase the child, and the father or mother, guardian, or other person having charge of the child, to be summoned to appear before the judge. Upon it's being proved that the person responsible for the child had not used."
