Getting to School

Students are expected to be committed to being in their class during the designated time everyday. Students who miss more than ten days per semester in any class are at risk for not receiving credit for their classes and will be required to go through an appeal process to receive credit. Missing 10 days will also put students at risk of being dropped from the district and those students will be required to re-enroll. Re-enrollment at Tulsa MET is not guaranteed for students who are withdrawn for attendance reasons. Student guardians are responsible for calling the office if the student will not be in school. Student guardians must come into the school, if the student is being picked up early, to sign them out. Students who miss school for any reason are responsible for communicating with teachers and completing make-up work unless otherwise approved by administration.

EXCUSED ABSENCES

• Approved, pre-arranged events with acceptable documentation
• Family emergencies with acceptable documentation
• Observance of a religious holiday with acceptable documentation
• Death in the immediate family with acceptable documentation
• Illness or injury of the student (verified with medical documentation turned into the office within 48 hours) with acceptable documentation

UNEXCUSED ABSENCES

Unexcused absences include any circumstance not listed as an excused absence, including any absence due to truancy. Students who are truant from class will receive an unexcused absence and face disciplinary action.

Students may enter the building beginning at 8:15am. The first hour begins at 8:40am. All tardy students must obtain a pass in the main office before proceeding to class. The end of the school day is at 3:15 pm. All students not involved in a supervised activity with a staff member are required to be out of the building by 3:30p.m. On days of inclement weather, an area will be designated for those students waiting on transportation; students must remain in this area until transportation arrives.
