Several important pieces of student information

·         After two absences or 4 tardies or a combination of absences and tardies; a student will not receive credit for the course he/she is enrolled in.

·         There are no groupings of absences, no doctor’s notes, etc.  Court dates do count as an absence.

·         A student will be marked tardy 1-10 minutes after class has started.  After 10 minutes, a student will be marked absent.

·         Due to the fact that there are several summer school programs in session, students must remain on the second floor at all times while summer school is in session.  Only use the bathrooms on the second floor, where your classroom is located.

·         Students may not leave school grounds while summer school is in session. 

·         Students are to leave the building at noon and not linger in the building or on school grounds.  Students are to enter and exit the building only through doors #18, #20, and #22.

·         Students who are driving to school must park behind CRMS and enter the building only through doors #18, #20, and #22.
