Regulations

Fees and Refunds

Fees must be paid on or before the first day of summer school. A student who arrives on the first day without having paid will not be enrolled. Payment should accompany all registrations. A late fee of $25.00 will be applied to any registration (Elementary, Middle and High School) after 12:00 p.m. June 15, 2015.

Please make checks payable to: NORTH RIDGEVILLE BOARD OF EDUCATION

No refunds will be given except in the event a class is cancelled due to lack of enrollment. No refunds are given to students who are expelled from summer school due to disorderly conduct or serious violation of the student code of conduct or violation of attendance policy.

No Bus Transportation is provided

Student may ride bicycles, but they are to be kept outside and locked. The school is not responsible for lost or stolen bicycles. Students may drive to summer school. They are required to park in the south side of the Middle School parking lot near the Ranger Stadium. This also includes the gravel parking lot. No cars are to be entered or moved during school hours. The west side parking lot is reserved for Staff only.

Code of Conduct

The complete Code of Conduct will be given to each student on the first day of school. The Code of Conduct for Summer School is the same set of guidelines followed during the regular school year.

Discipline procedures are the same as used during the regular school year. These include parent conference, detention, and suspension. Attending Summer School is a privilege and not a requirement. Students are expected, therefore, to assume the responsibility of appropriate behavior.

Summer School Attendance Policy

Summer School provides a yearlong program in six weeks at the secondary level. Therefore, regular attendance is extremely important. One day missed is worth four days of instruction, as it takes 60 hours to earn one credit.

When a student is absent from Summer School, the parent or guardian must notify the school of the student’s absence. This may be done in advance of the day of absence through written communication or by telephone. Parents are required to call the school (440-327-3981) if the student will be absent for any reason.

Students are expected to make up work missed. During Summer School, the 4th

absence will result in the removal from the class and a failure for a 6-week course being taken. (1½ days for a 3-week course).

Each time a student is tardy to school or class, it is recorded as a quarter day absence from the course. A ½ day absence is recorded for the student who is an hour late to class. A full day is recorded after two hours.

If the student’s absence is not cleared in advance, the parent or guardian must notify the school on the day of absence. When calling the school the parent must have a reason for the absence.

If the school is not notified of the student’s absence, the school will attempt to notify the parent(s) by telephone or written communication.

In cases where there has been no parent contact, the student must present, immediately upon his/her return to school, a dated note from the parent. The note should contain the student’s name, reason for the absence, date of absence, and the parent’s signature.

If you are absent or sign out during the day, you are expected to have a parent/doctor note upon returning to school. You will have one day to turn in a doctor’s note. (Example: If you were absent on Monday and returned to school on Tuesday, you would have until Wednesday morning to bring a note.)

The Ohio Revised Code lists the following as legal reasons for absences: 1. Personal or family illness or injury

2. Quarantine 3. Death in family

4. Emergency or set circumstances judged as sufficient causes by school administrators

Students who have been absent from a class more than 3 times will not receive credit for the course and will not be refunded for the course. All absences after the initial 3 days must be due to doctor certified illness, suspension, approved activity, certified court appearance, or death in the immediate family.
