The School District recognizes the need of some students to attend school on a part-time basis.  The Board of Education has established regulations regarding part-time attendance.  It is the intent of this regulation to meet the individual needs of each student and at the same time establish rules and regulations which will preserve the discipline, health, and academic standards of the school.

Eligibility Requirements

1. The student must have parent/guardian approval unless special circumstances apply.
2. The student must demonstrate a definite need to attend school on a part-time basis. Examples are: a) financial needs of student or family, b) health problems of self or family, c) vocational training in school or on the job, d) enrollment in a school of higher education, and e) unique curriculum offerings.
3. The student must have 95% attendance to be eligible for part-time.

Application Procedure

The student must complete a part-time attendance request form.  After an application has been submitted, the principal shall rule on the request. In the event the principal denies the request, the student may appeal to the Superintendent.  If the student is not satisfied with the decision of the Superintendent, an appeal may be made to the Board of Education.

Part-time students are governed by the same rules and regulations that apply to regularly enrolled students.

These rules and regulations on part-time attendance are found in the High School Student Handbook.
