Regular attendance and promptness to class are necessary to assure the continuity of the educational program. Time lost from class is irretrievable, and absences tend to disrupt the continuity of the instructional program. Time on task is essential if students are to succeed in their educational efforts. Most teaching is done in an orderly sequence of building concepts and practices based on classroom activities and previous academic experiences. If this pattern is broken by poor attendance, neither the student nor the school can expect satisfactory progress. School attendance is ultimately the responsibility of students and families. Students should remain out of school
