Attendance Policy
Attendance is crucial in theatre class! When a student is absent, it not only impacts the students’ learning, it impacts their classmates who are relying on them in scenes and activities. If a student misses more than one class, we consider that an “incomplete” class. If a scholarship student misses more than one class, their scholarship status for the remaining school year will be rescinded and the administrative fee will not be refunded. Readmission into the scholarship program for the following school year will be made on a case-by-case basis.
