7.03 STUDENT ABSENCES Students are expected to attend classes regularly and to be on time for class activities. Parents are urged to cooperate with the School in keeping absence and tardiness to an absolute minimum. Excessive student absences could lower performance achievement and performance grades.
7.04 STUDENT CONDUCT Students will conduct themselves at all times in a manner which will bring credit upon themselves and the School. All students will be informed of the administration’s regulations regarding student conduct. In general, common-sense standards of respect, courtesy and behavior apply. However, specific attention should be paid to the sensitivities of Indian culture. Ignorance of a specific school rule is no excuse for inappropriate behavior.
7.05 STUDENT DRESS CODE All Students shall adhere to the School’s Uniform Code. Details regarding the School Uniform shall be disseminated each year to the parents and students. The Board directs the Head of School to establish and implement regulations that will enable faculty and the administration to enforce the School Uniform with consistency and firmness. The Board recognizes that there might be some students willing to repeatedly test the intent of this policy. Those students need to know that the Board is prepared to act on any recommendation by the Head of School for termination of enrollment. School is a student’s place of business. Therefore, on “dress up” or “dress down” days, students are expected to follow good taste in their dress and grooming. It is also important to keep in mind the customs and traditions in India. Clothing worn to School should be comfortable and modest and should not disrupt the learning process.
