Greetings,
Please know the following policies for students taking Bonneville Online High School courses. These policies apply to full-time students and dual enrollment students through a district middle and high school.
BOHS Attendance Policy:
Working on online courses regularly and staying on pace are key factors to student success. Please note the following practices and expectations.
BOHS attendance corresponds to students working on pace.
Each Wednesday, an absence will be entered into PowerSchool for any student who is behind pace. For example, on Wednesday of Week 4, students should have completed the Week 3 folder, or they will receive one absence. This will continue weekly.
Please refer to each teacher’s specific policy in the Orientation folder in each class.
BOHS Loss of Credit for Attendance (LCA) Policy
According to board policy, all students must attend at least ninety percent (90%) of the time school is in session during each grading period. Being in attendance means being physically present in the classroom or engaged in virtual learning online under the direction of the teacher. Students should have no more than six (6) total absences from school/class during a grading period.
BOHS may deny participation in school activities, deny credit and/or grade for a class, place ineligibility for a driver’s licencse, and/or refer to Bonneville County Juvenile Probation for any student who is not in school or engaged in virtual learning online under the direction of Bonneville School District’s Attendance Policy.
Parents/guardians who believe that all or part of their student’s excessive absences resulting from extraordinary circumstances may request a review of the case following the attendance appeal process.
What does this mean for a BOHS student?
For a BOHS class, attendance is based on weekly progress. PowerSchool will change the grade to an LCA when a student has met more than six absences in a class. At that time, the student and parent need to contact an administrator to discuss the absences and create a plan for how to receive the credit. BOHS courses are flexible within the week but not during the trimester. Saving the class for the end may result in a loss of credit due to a lack of consistent progress in the class. Please stay on pace with the weekly folders.
We hope you have a great start to the trimester. We look forward to working with your student. Please reach out if you have questions or concerns.
We are excited for every student to “Embrace the Climb” at BOHS. Feel the enthusiasm as you reach the summit of your high school career.
Every senior will have their name put on an “Embrace the Climb” whiteboard at the BOHS building. Let us know when you decide your “next step” after high school and we will fill it out on the board. We will then have a celebration with you, the BOHS staff, and your family. Watch for your name to be highlighted in our newsletter each month as you accomplish your goal. Please fill out the Senior Survey form to help us gather the information.
The BOHS Website has been UPDATED.
FYI - Students, if you need to schedule a time to meet with your teacher please go to the website www.d93online.com under for students, click on - Full-Time Teacher Office Hours.
Here you will view each teacher scheduled in the office for that day and what time.
