If a student is absent from school for an experience that has educational value, it is possible that the absence(s) may be changed from unexcused to excused. To request this change, the parent and student must go through the following process:
Parent will receive a copy of the form notifying them of the principal's decision to leave the trip open to review.
Upon returning, student must write a 2-page paper summarizing the trip's experiences and educational value. Submit it to Dr. Taylor (or take to the front office) for his review.
Absences will remain unexcused until Dr. Taylor receives and approves the 2 page summary.
