JH Promotion Policy
Junior High students will be promoted to the next grade level if they are receiving passing grades of 60% or higher in at least 2 quarters of core solids (English, Math, Science, and Social Studies).
Academic performance in electives will also be considered in the retention process. The decision to retain will be made by the administration with input from the counselor and Junior
High teachers. Retention in the current grade level may be required if remediation efforts are unsuccessful. The final decision will rest with the school administration.
Illness Policy
A reminder of our Student Handbook policy if your child becomes sick during school:
ILLNESS
A phone call home must be made by school personnel through the appropriate office in order for a student to check out due to medical/illness conditions.
a. If a student contacts a parent/grandparent/guardian on their own without going through the appropriate office, he/she will be written up for DEFIANCE OF AUTHORITY/INSUBORDINATION.
b. All students should have an emergency contact on file that can pick them up from school within 30 minutes of being called.
How Do I Know If I Am In Good Standing?
Eligibility checks are done every two weeks throughout the school year to determine whether or not a student is in good standing. To be in good standing, a student cannot have any Fs or have an attendance rate lower than 90%.
If you are not in good standing when the eligibility check is done, you are not allowed to participate in or attend extra-curricular activities.
The next check will be done Monday, April 3, 2023.
Good Standing
To be considered a student in good standing, a student must not be in violation of the attendance policy, have outstanding discipline referrals OR appear on the current F list.
In order to participate in extracurricular events including (but not limited to): dances, field trips, school-sanctioned sports events; a student must be in good standing.
Students in grades 6-12 that are not in good standing will have closed lunch and be required
to sign in daily in the cafeteria.
