College visits for junior and senior students:

Junior and senior students are allowed 2 absences for college visits per year. Appropriate procedures must be followed. A student must submit to the appropriate assistant principal, 7 days prior to the visit, a form requesting a college visit. In order for the student to be approved to go on a college visit, the student must meet the following criteria.

• The student must be classified as a junior or senior based on credits.

• The student can not have already taken 2 college visits during the current school year.

The student must provide proof of the college visit to the assistant principal within 2 school days following the college visit.
