Team Procedures
Procedures for Absentees Boury Middle School’s absentee procedures and
consequences for unexcused absences are clearly
defined. All students are granted three unexcused
absences per semester. For an absence to be
considered excused, the student must submit an
Absence Request form to his or her homeroom
teachers. The teacher will initial the form to indicate
that he/she received it, and then the form will be
submitted to the assistant principal’s office. The
decision to excuse an absence is ultimately left to the

excused, as long as the appropriate paperwork is

and subsequent violation. Ultimately, parents, teachers, faculty, and principals will
be involved in the discipline process so that students are aware of the high standards
in which they are held. Procedures are written simply and will be reviewed in the
classrooms at the beginning of each semester so that students are aware of the
expectations.

consequences so that students can learn and grow from the mistakes they make while
making sure they know the rules and consequences that come along with

management plan so that teachers can have control over their classroom while
