草榴社区Evening School
Overview of Evening School
WHAT DOES EVENING SCHOOL OFFER?
The Evening program is focused on providing students with the opportunity to learn, complete coursework, and recover credits required for high school graduation that is mindful of individual differences and learning styles. Classes are offered each semester while grades are completed by quarter. Attending the Evening program will lead to a high school diploma that is readily accepted by the military, colleges, and employers. It is our mission to successfully prepare our students to transition to post secondary education and/or the workforce. As a nontraditional setting, we empower students to be self confident life long learners who serve as active citizens enjoying a reciprocal relationship with their community.
Evening High School courses are offered at 草榴社区Main on the first floor. The office is located in Room 100.

COMMUNICATION AND INTERVENTIONS
Parent meetings and interventions will be set up with the Evening School Counselor and House Principal for students not attending evening school. CPS may be called and home visits may take place. All day/evening counselors will connect with one another to communicate with the day attendance aides to see how we can assist the evening counselor and house principal in this process.
The Evening Campus secretary will make phone calls home every day to those students not in attendance. We also recommend all teachers of students who do not come to class call home to communicate absences.

FAQs
Scholars who are at least 14 years old and under the age of 21 and did not complete high school, you may enroll in Evening High School if you have passed the eighth grade. Counselors will review your records and determine which courses you will need to complete graduation requirements.
The number of credits and courses required for graduation depends upon the graduation requirements in place at the time you entered the ninth grade. At the time of registration, all high school counselors from 草榴社区Main, Evening, North, and West review student records to determine the appropriate course of study for each student. Students enrolled in a day high school program are subject to the current requirements for graduation.
A student who misses three or more class meetings is considered excessively absent and may not meet requirements for earning credit. The evening high school lead administrator and teacher(s) review cases of absenteeism to create intervention plans that include parent and student input. The team composed of the teacher, counselor, parent, and administrator, will decide whether or not credit can be awarded at the end of each quarter.
Regular day school conduct and dress requirements are in effect. Serious and/or repeated violations of school rules and regulations may be sufficient reason for disciplinary action. Smoking or possession of tobacco products is not permitted on school property or at school-sponsored events.
Yes! All evening high school students are invited to participate in the 草榴社区graduation ceremony that is held each June.
