Attendance
Defined Absences:
“Excused”
This policy in no way supersedes the county/school policy.
“Excused”
- Planned absence for a doctor appointment with an accompanying doctor note upon return.
- Parent notes (accepted according to each individual district policy (e.g., up to five parent notes will be accepted per school year)
- Unplanned absences for any reason not accompanied by either a parent or doctor note.
- Planned absences will be requested, by telling a worker in human resources and then they will tell the instructor.
- Planned absences must be accompanied with either a parent not or doctor note upon return.
- ALL unplanned absences (sick days) will require the employee to call and/or email the instructor by day of absence and give notification and reason for an unplanned absence. Even if a doctor or parent note will be presented upon return.
- Each unexcused absence will result in a penalty, which will decrease the company’s overall net worth. (refer to employee handbook)
- Once a student is referred to the county attendance director according to policy, the company will be assessed another penalty and the offending student will no longer be considered a “fulltime” employee, and therefore not receive access to the benefits of the periodic bonuses the company may earn. The offending student, will however, be placed on ‘contract’ to complete various projects, and have no further incidents of unexcused absences, the student’s “fulltime” company employment status can be reinstated per the instructor’s recommendation. Written requests for reinstatement must be submitted to the instructor for this consideration. (Instructor will place on documentation in the student files)
