IMPORTANT ATTENDANCE INFORMATION:

• In the case of excessive absences privileges may be revoked.

Academics - Students who are selected for the zero period class will be expected to perform at an

appropriate academic level. Zero period classes will result in credits, and therefore will require students

to complete satisfactory work to earn credit. Students will be required to complete coursework in a

timely manner and consistently engage with the subject matter.

of the above policies, rules or expectations may result in removal from zero period. Excellent behavior is
