Second Referral Two after school detentions.
Third Referral and Subsequent Referrals Meeting with parents, possible in-school suspension, withdrawal from class, withholding re-registration.

ATTENDANCE

If a student is absent from school for a reason, it is the parents’ responsibility to phone the office prior to 9:00 am at 604.261.4285 ext. 399, and also to provide a signed note, explaining the reason for absence upon his return to school. Students will not be admitted to class following an absence without an admit slip. If a student does not have a note from his parent/guardian upon his return to school, only an Administrator is authorized to issue an admit slip.

TRUANCY

Absence without an excuse for any part of a school day is a serious breach of our Code of Conduct. A student can be deemed to be truant only by an Administrator after investigating the reason for absence. A student who is deemed to have been truant from school shall be subject to the following sanctions:

First Violation - Two after school detentions.
Second Violation - Meeting with parents, suspension (1 day).
Subsequent Violations - Subsequent violations could lead to a variety of consequences including further suspensions, suspension of extra-curricular privileges, counseling, withdrawal from class, withholding re-registration and expulsion.
