New Attendance Incentive – Getting students to school makes a difference in their performance and the overall school performance.  The Leadership Team with input from the staff developed the following Attendance Incentive that will begin effective Oct. 8, 2012.  Students who meet the criteria listed are eligible:
Exempting Final Exams with grades of 80 or higher
    • Absent with only one approved excuse; unexcused absences do not count.
    • The student may select one final exam to exempt if their grade is an 80 or above before the exam is administered.
    • Exemption forms will be available in the Main Office, Guidance Office, Media Center and online.
    • Exemption forms must be given to the classroom teacher where the final will be exempted.
    • The classroom teacher will verify attendance using Pinnacle and OnTrack.
    • All exemption forms will be given to the Department Chair.
10% Added to Final Exams with grades of 79% and below
    • Absent with only one approved excuse; unexcused absences do not count.
    • The student may select one class where 10% points will be added to the final exam.
    • Exemption forms will be available in the Main Office, Guidance Office, Media Center and online.
    • Exemption forms must be given to the classroom teacher where the final will be exempted.
