Attendance
Unexcused Absence –
Students are allowed up to eight hours of classroom absences before
being placed on attendance probation. Any additional time missed may
result in dismissal from the program. When a
student is tardy or absent it is required that within 24 hours an e-mail
must be sent to the school explaining the cause for the tardy or
absence.
Unexcused Tardy –
Students are allowed up to four classroom tardies before being place on
attendance probation. Any additional time missed may result in
dismissal from the program. A tardy is defined as arriving to the
classroom/instructor after the scheduled start time. If the student
arrives more than 45 minutes late or leaves more than 45 minutes late
they will be marked absent (4 hour blocks). The student may still
participate in the remainder of the current sessions activities. It is
the student’s responsibility to bring to the instructors attention the
moment they arrive. A courtesy call to EMTS would be appreciated to
notify us of your delay. The number is 972-527-3687.
