What is the Upper School Summer ATTENDANCE and CREDIT policy?

Upper School summer courses cover a significant amount of course material in a very short time. For that reason, the attendance policy is very strict, and no exceptions will be made.

Yearlong Class: Yearlong classes consist of two semester units. Students may only miss one (1) day per semester of the class to receive credit. If a student misses more than one (1) day in either semester or more than two (2) days total, they will not receive credit.

Semester Class: Students may only miss one (1) day of class to received credit. If a student misses more than one day of class, they will not receive credit.

What is the DEADLINE for dropping academic classes?

Students may drop a semester-long Upper School class (without academic penalty) anytime during the first two (2) class meetings. Student may drop a year-long Upper School summer class (without academic penalty) anytime during the first five (5) class meetings. Any student who drops a class after this time will receive a W on their transcript and will need to remediate the course.
