Policies and Procedures

Attendance

Credit-seeking students may not exceed two (2) absences per course. If a student is tardy to class the following will apply:
Each tardy greater than 45 minutes constitutes an absence. Any tardy between 15 – 45 minutes is a half absence. Two tardies less than 15 minutes is equivalent to one half absence.

All absences are de facto; that is, they are recorded independent of reason or excuse. Credit will be disallowed for any student who exceeds the above stated limit for any reason. THE POLICY OF TWO (2) ABSENCES PER CLASS PER SEMESTER WILL BE STRICTLY ENFORCED. Simply put, if you miss more than two classes, for any reason, you will fail the course.

Policies

No smoking will be allowed at Nashua High School North (within the building or on the grounds) in accordance with state law. No hats or other head covering is permitted. Violations will result in suspension from class and a charged absence. Any behavior that impedes the operation of the Nashua Community Adult School or negatively impacts a class will result in a student’s removal from the course and/or the school.

Payment and Refunds

Fees, unless otherwise noted, are payable at the time of registration. Checks should be made payment to the Nashua School District and “for night school” should be written in the memo section. There will be a processing fee charged for any returned checks. Separate materials costs, if any, are payable the first night of class. There will be no refunds after the first class meeting.

Food and Beverages

Bottled water and snacks are permitted in the classrooms during the first 15 minutes and the last 15 minutes of class. NO OTHER food or beverage is allowed at any time, in the classrooms, hallways or any other area within the building.

Building Usage Restrictions

Use front doors only for entrance/exit. Use front parking lot (closest area)

Course Materials and School Property

All books, unless paid for by individual students, are the property of Nashua High School. Failure to return any book at the end of the course will result in a charge for the replacement costs of the text. Grades will be withheld until all materials are returned or until all charges are paid. Also, if any piece of equipment is broken and/or if the facility itself is damaged, the student will pay any repair/replacement costs. Again, grades will be withheld until all charges are paid.

School Calendar

The Adult Education Program follows the Nashua School District calendar. See this year’s school calendar for NO SCHOOL DAYS. During severe inclement weather, cancellations will be announced on WMUR. You can also call 589-6416 as the voicemail will be updated to reflect evening school closings. Night school will meet on early release days.

Student Acknowledgment

My signature indicates that I have read, understand and accept the terms of the attendance, refund, non-smoking and materials/property policies listed above.

Right to Cancel

The Nashua School District retains the right to cancel or reschedule classes and/or courses. Participants will be notified and fees (prorated) will be refunded.

The Nashua Board of Education reaffirms its position of compliance with applicable State and Federal laws of nondiscrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, disability, and/or age in admission to, access to, treatment in, or employment in the services, programs, and activities of the Nashua School District.
