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 Re-enrollment at Tulsa MET is not guaranteed for students who are withdrawn for attendance reasons.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.
