UCAS
Attendance Policy
The UCAS attendance policy
was designed to help students learn more in class, develop discipline,
and to keep disruption in class to a minimum. One of the goals of
UCAS is to help students prepare for college, university,and the world
of work. Punctuality, respect, and responsibility are important
personal traits to develop to be successful in these areas.
Students will receive a notice to serve detention if they have:
· Three or more tardies in one class - A tardy results when a student arrives in class after the bell has finished ringing.
· One
unexcused absence in any class - An absence results when a student
arrives about 10-15 minutes after class has started, or doesn't go to class at all.
Students are expected to have the tardies/absence(s)
excused, or
to serve the detention, within 4
days of the date of the notice. To excuse an absence, a parent
may call in, send a note in with their student, or email our attendance
tracker, Julie Schiffman, at schiffmanj at ucas.k12.ut.us. Please contact her if you have any questions.
Detention is offered Monday through Friday after school from 4:00-5:00. Students are
expected
to be quietly working on homework or studying during the course of the
hour. Students who are late for detention will not be allowed
to
attend that day.
Parents are encouraged to
check their student’s attendance on SIS.
Parents will be notified if the absences and detentions become
excessive. If this happens, an administrator/counselor may call a
parent meeting and suspend
the student until the meeting is held to discuss the attendance
issues.
After this action is taken and if the student continues to be
excessively tardy or absent, they may be asked to seek alternative
placements,
i.e. East Shore High School (ALLC), Utah Electronic High School, or BYU
Independent Study.
