[Attendance Policy]
Maximum Absences:
Students are expected to attend all scheduled class sessions. Each student is allowed a maximum of three (3) absences per semester without penalty. These absences can be used for any reason, including illness, personal emergencies, or other legitimate circumstances.
Late Entry Policy:
To maintain a focused and respectful learning environment, students are not allowed to enter the classroom if they arrive after half-past the scheduled start time of the class session. Students arriving after this time will either be marked as late or will not be admitted to the class. Late arrivals disrupt the flow of instruction and can be distracting to fellow students.
