Student Expectations for
Fall 2015/2016 Evening High School
Welcome! This publication contains valuable information pertaining to attendance, discipline, and student
expectations.
Student Expectations
The curriculum has been constructed to enhance what is taught during the conventional school year. Our goal
is to provide each student with the best possible learning situation to attain his/her educational goals. The
Rockford Public Schools are committed to providing each student with a quality fall evening high school
educational program. This requires that the school environment be free from disruptions and distractions that
interfere with teaching and learning activities. We set high expectations for appropriate behaviors that
contribute in a positive way to the school and community. A proper balance between student rights and
responsibilities is essential if Rockford Public Schools are to provide educational experiences which enable all
students to develop to their fullest potential.
Behavior Expectations Of Students


Attend class daily

Attendance, Tardy, And Grading Expectations
The evening high school is a highly concentrated educational experience providing students with 22 ½ hours of
instruction.

In the evening high school program, a student is allowed only one absence per session for any reason.
If a student has two absences per session, the student is dropped from that session without credit or
refund.

Two tardies are equivalent to one absence. The teacher will record tardies during the first 50 minutes
of the class. A student arriving to the class session after the first 50 minutes is considered absent.

As reflected in the “Roosevelt Model” of instruction, a student must complete all assignments with a
minimum of 70% accuracy. A final grade below 70% is not considered passing.
