ATTENDANCE POLICY 1. Students are expected to arrive on time and stay for the entire duration of the class. 2. Students must attend a minimum of 3 classes per month to remain enrolled. Absences should be kept to a minimum to ensure consistent progress. 3. Reporting Absences: If a student is unable to attend a class, parents/guardians must notify the instructor at least 24 hours in advance. For unexpected absences due to illness or emergencies, notify the instructor as soon as possible. 4. Due to the structured nature of the program and resource constraints, make-up classes will not be offered for missed sessions. Students are encouraged to review missed material with peers or independently to stay up-to-date. 5. Tardiness: Students arriving more than 10 minutes late may not be allowed to join the class to avoid disruption. Repeated tardiness may affect the student's enrollment status. 6. Consequences of Excessive Absences: More than 2 unexcused absences in a term may result in removal from the program. Consistent attendance is crucial for maintaining enrollment and ensuring progress in the art curriculum. 7. Commitment to Participation: Active participation in all classes is expected. Students should come prepared with necessary materials and a positive attitude to learn and create. This policy ensures that all students receive the full benefit of the art classes, and maintains the quality and integrity of the program.
