Attendance & Activities

As we move further into the school year, we want to reaffirm our commitment to your student’s success. Research consistently shows that regular attendance is the number one predictor of academic progress toward graduation. When students are in class, they are engaged, learning, and on track.

Monitoring Attendance via Aeries

We encourage all parents to log in to Aeries weekly to review their student’s attendance record. Specifically, please look for unexcused absences, tardies, and period truancies, as these result in demerits.

The Loss of Privileges List

Once a student reaches 10 or more demerits, they are placed on the Loss of Privileges list. This restricts them from participating in school activities, including Winter Formal, Prom, Senior activities, and Graduation. Students must have their demerits cleared to zero to participate in these events.

Demerit Recovery Opportunities

If your student needs to clear demerits, please note the following schedule for detention and Saturday Academy:

Upcoming Saturday Academy Dates:

• January: 17th, 24th, 31st

• February: 7th, 14th, 28th

• March: 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th

• April: 4th, 18th, 25th

• May: 3rd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th

Attendance Policies & Procedures

Please have a conversation with your student about the importance of being in class. Detailed policies regarding early releases and more can be found here: THHS Attendance Policy.

• Excusing Absences: Must be cleared within 3 days.

• Sick Days: Up to 14 days can be cleared by a parent; beyond that, a doctor’s note is required.

Thank you for your partnership in ensuring your student remains eligible for all the exciting year-end milestones.
