Make-Up Policy
Students shall be given the opportunity to make up school work missed because of an excused absence and shall receive full credit for work that is turned in according to a reasonable make-up schedule. (Education Code 48205)
The teacher of any class from which a pupil is suspended may require the suspended pupil to complete any assignments and tests missed during the suspension. (Education Code 48913)
Students who miss school work because of unexcused absences may be given the opportunity to make up missed work for full or reduced credit. Teachers shall assign such makeup work as necessary to ensure academic progress, not as a punitive measure. (BP 6154)
End of Semester Overview
There are no early finals. Because of department finals and exam security, the finals are given only during the official Final Exam Schedule, the last three days of each semester. All students must take a final exam in all classes to receive a final grade.
Students who transfer or check out before final exams will not be given final grades for that semester. They will be issued a check out grade, and the school where the student is transferring will determine whether to allow full credit or not.
If a student is absent during the last days of a semester due to excused absences, the student will receive an Incomplete (I) grade on the report card and will be provided the opportunity to make up the missed work and the final exam. Incomplete marks must be “made up” within the first four weeks of the following semester or sooner at the discretion of the instructor.
Arrangements for taking make-up final exams are to be made with the appropriate instructor or administrator. The instructor will initiate a grade change following the completion of make-up work.
Summer School Overview
