Special Education Services

Student Behavior
The summer high school programs are not part of the State Mandated Free Public Education programs offered by City Schools. Therefore,
those provisions of the Code of Conduct that deal specifically with the number of suspension days are not applicable. Expectations for student
behavior are outlined in the Code of Conduct. Students must adhere to the rules and regulations set forth in the Code of Conduct. Students may
be automatically withdrawn from summer school due to consistent infractions of the Code of Conduct. If a student is withdrawn due to
inappropriate behavior a refund will not be given.
Summer School Attendance Policy
Summer school students shall attend class unless prevented by severe illness, death in the family, or court related matters. Summer school
students who miss 10% (3 days) of a class will receive a failing grade for that class. Arriving at school on time is very important to learning.
Three latenesses will constitute one absence. Students whose attendance or punctuality do not meet the above requirements will be withdrawn
from the summer school program This will be done after the school contacts parents/guardians by phone or mail, by counseling and/or by parent
conferences. Refunds will not be given.
Refund Policy
Requests for refunds must be made to the summer school office of the school where the student is registered on or before July 1, 2014.
Refunds will be mailed after August 10, 2014. There will be no refunds for students who have been withdrawn due to chronic absences,
lateness, or offenses against the Code of Conduct. Refund requests after July 1, 2014 will be denied.
