Schedule & Attendance

Attendance Requirements & Considerations

Attendance Expectation:  All students are expected to attend all of their scheduled classes every day on time (unless accommodations have been made on the student’s continual learning plan).

If a student is not able to attend school for any reason, a parent/guardian is expected to call the attendance line at 952-496-5984.

Attendance calls are sent to parents/guardians when prior notification to the secretary of an absence/tardy is not provided. 

TLC Policies for Promoting Consistent Attendance:

  1. Daily phone call home for students who are not present in school.

  2. Daily phone call home for students who leave school early without permission.

  3. Students who exhibit chronic absenteeism/tardiness will meet with a TLC staff member to create a student support plan.

  4. Students who continue to exhibit chronic absenteeism or tardiness after receiving additional support may receive a modified schedule or be removed from the TLC Core Program.   

Attendance for Students 18+

If a student is over 18 years of age and submits an 18+ waiver complete with a signature of a parent or guardian, the student may call themselves in if they are going to be absent or late, but administration reserves the right to contact a parent/guardian to verify any absence with the parent or guardian.  

The Tokata Learning Center is a closed campus, meaning students may not leave the school (or if outside - supervised area) during the school day without permission from a TLC staff member.  Students who leave campus without permission will be required to work in the R&R room for the remainder of the day.   Students may also be dismissed if they violated additional school policies while off campus.

Students are not allowed to order food and have it delivered to the TLC because of the distraction it creates for school operations.   Students who order food will be required to store it in the staff workroom until the end of the day.
