1. All notes must be turned in within three days of returning to school including the day you return from the absence, otherwise, they are unexcused. Put your ID and periods missed on them and leave them in the sub school office basket, whether the secretary is there or not. If you need a pass to get out of a class early for any reason, bring a parent note to sub school before first period and you will be given a pass to leave early. You must have a pass to leave class and you MUST ALWAYS sign out and back in whenever leaving or returning to school.
2. A college visit will be an excused absence if, when a student returns, they provide the sub-school office a document issued by the college on college letterhead with the student's name and date on it as proof of their visit. Absences related to college visits will not be counted towards final exam exemptions.
