Return to Table of Contents
Class Tardiness:
If a student is tardy to class they will be expected to enter with a late pass from either the front office, administrator, teacher or the nurse. If a student arrives without a pass the discipline matrix will be followed.
School Tardiness:
Students not in their first period class when the 8:10 bell rings will be considered tardy. Any student entering the building after 8:10 a.m. must be signed in by a parent or guardian. Excused tardies include: doctor's excuse, illness, religious reasons, and car problems.
Under the district’s revised Attendance Policy, students who arrive after 11:33 a.m. will be considered absent for the day. Students are required to be in attendance for 203 minutes to be counted as present.
TELEPHONE:
Students will not be called to the office for personal phone calls; in case of emergencies, the message will be relayed to the student. Student use of the school telephone will be permissible for educational or health related reasons only.
TRANSCRIPT:
Although Oblock Junior High School does not offer a transcript, students who take and successfully pass the following courses, while at Oblock, will have them noted on their Plum Senior High School transcript:
● Algebra 1 ● Geometry
● Spanish 1
● French 1
The above classes will not count towards total high school credits earned and will not be calculated into a student’s overall QPA. The intent of listing the above courses is to show a student’s progression of course work.
VENDING MACHINES:
A soft drink vending machine will be available to students after 3:00 PM. It is recommended that soft drinks be consumed in the immediate area of the vending machine. They are not permitted in any classrooms in the building.
