Summer Term 2024 Policies

We ask that both students and parents/guardians review these policies. These details outline the general expectations that our instructors address on a daily basis. Each teacher may have his or her own areas of emphasis so please be aware of what each class expects. Please be your best student and self during our time together.

Program Policies

All students must be present and arrive in a timely fashion to their designated classroom.
Students are allowed to miss at most one (1) class during the duration of the Accelerated Summer Math Program. Missed class is expected to be made up by meeting with the instructor before/after class. Students who miss more than one class are allowed to remain in the program, but your completion of the program will be counted as an enrichment audit to help prepare for fall and not towards moving ahead into a higher math course.
Please respect your teacher and classmates
Dress code should be presentable and within CCHS dress down guidelines with respect to what is appropriate for class. Hats, hoods, sunglasses, and revealing or inappropriate clothing that references sex, drugs or alcohol are not permitted.
Eating and drinking while participating in class is not acceptable. This is distracting and inconsiderate of your teacher and classmates. Students who eat during a session may be removed from the class and progressive discipline will be enforced.
Note: Students who consistently ignore the above may forfeit learning access and all paid program fees.
