Question for Members
Posted by nscta_site_admin on Tuesday, April 22 @ 20:02:25 EDT (22 reads)
Classroom Strategies Dear NSCTA Members,

I need your help. We are surveying schools to find out what their policy is when a student is failing a class. For example, at Lakeview, if a student is failing a class, he/she has to report to "Friday time" where he/she is to study for 35 minutes and all the other students get out earlier. If the student is failing two classes, he/she is not allowed to compete in extra-curricular activites. Please let me know if you have any policies in place concerning this matter.

Thanks in advance,
Peg Slusarski
Lakeview High School
