Parents - The SCSD requires your cooperation with school and district authorities during a lockdown crisis.

The SCSD will routinely publish directory information in conjunction with press releases regarding school activities, honor roll announcements, athletic events, and other such activities. Under provisions of the National Defense Authorization Act and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (No Child Left Behind), directory information may also be released to law enforcement agencies, other governmental agencies (U.S. Department of Justice, branches of Armed Forces, etc.) and to post­secondary programs to inform students of educational programs available to them. However, directory information shall not be released for commercial use, including among others, mailing lists for solicitation purposes.

FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERP A) affords parents/guardians and students over 18 years of age ("eligible students") certain rights with respect to the student's educational records.

1. The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 30 days of the day the District receives a request for access. Parents/guardians or eligible students should submit to the principal (or appropriate school official) a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The principal will make arrangements for access and notify the parent/guardian or eligible student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If copies of these records are requested, the first five pages will be provided at no cost. Additional pages will be copied for a charge of 15 cents per page.

2. The right to request the amendment of the student's education records that the parent/guardian or eligible student believes is inaccurate or misleading. Parents/guardians or eligible students may ask the SCSD to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate, misleading, or in violation of the student's privacy rights. When making such a request, a written statement to the principal should clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the District decides not to amend the record as requested by the parent/guardian or eligible

student, the District will notify the parent/ guardian or eligible student of the decision and advise them of their right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the parent/guardian or eligible student when notified of the right to a hearing.

3. The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student's education records, except to the extent that the FERP A authorizes disclosure without consent.

A school official is a person employed by the District as administrator, supervisor, instructor, or support staff member (including health or medical staff and law enforcement unit personnel); a person serving on the School Board; a person or company with whom the District has contracted to perform a special task (such as an attorney, auditor, medical consultant, or therapist); or a parent/guardian or student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, the District discloses educational records, including record of disciplinary actions, without consent to officials of another school district in which the student intends to enroll. The right ls refuse ls prnviae the sluaont's sseial se61lfily mimlaer.

The District School Superintendent is responsible for enforcing school attendance of all students subject to the compulsory school age in the school district and supporting enforcement of school attendance by local law enforcement agencies. The responsibility includes recommending policies and procedures to the District School Board that require public schools to respond in a timely manner to every unexcused absence, and every absence for which the reason is unknown, of students enrolled in the schools.

Parents/guardians are responsible for the attendance of their children within the compulsory school age (6-16 years) unless the child files a formal declaration of intent to terminate school enrollment with the School Board on or after age 16. The declaration must acknowledge that terminating school enrollment is likely to reduce the student's earning potential and must be signed by the student and the student's parent/guardian. Parents/guardians who refuse or fail to have a child in school commit a misdemeanor, punishable as provided by law (§1003.21, Florida Statutes). Students 18 years ofage and older shall have all rights accorded to their records unless they are dependent on their parent/ guardian as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. Students 18 years ofage and older inK-12 educational programs are required to be in compliance with attendance and discipline policies of the SCSD.

Absences - Absence is nonattendance of a student at school or in an approved educational activity/field trip or program on days when school is in session. Absence occurs when a student is not physically present at school or not participating in an approved school activity as defmed under the compulsory school law. Though school-sponsored academic field trips are not considered absences, students are required to make up missed class work upon return to school.

Excused Absences may include: • Illness or injury of the student, as documented by a health care professional, • Illness or injury of the student's immediate family creating insurmountable condition of absence, as documented by

health care professional, • Death of a member of the student's inunediate family, • Documented appointments with health care professionals, • Administrative approval based upon written request/justification to principal or designee, • Recognized religious holidays, • Documented judicial actions-subpoena/summons, or • Therapy prescribed and delivered by a licensed certified practitioner.

Prior approval for absences for vacation or other anticipated reasons must be granted by an administrator and the student must make arrangements for makeup of work prior to the abseuce. Excessive abseuces and academic standing may be factors in the decision to excuse or not excuse the absence.

Unexcused Absences - An unexcused absence takes place any time a student is out of school for reasons unknown or not recognized under the law. On the third unexcused absence within the previous 30 school days, a letter will be sent to the parent/guardian informing them of the compulsory school attendance law and their legal obligation to follow the law.

Excessive Absences or Truant -A student is considered truant or excessively absent when he/she has had at least five (5) unexcused absences within a calendar month or 10 unexcused absences within a 90 calendar day period. The student may be exhibiting a pattern of nonattendance (truancy), and this may be considered excessive. Students who demonstrate truancy may-will forfeit their rights to attend Grad Bash, prom, field trips or other extracurricular activities. The student may be referred to the school's Student Support Team to determine if early patterns of truancy are developing. If it is determined, that an early pattern of truancy is developing, regardless of whether the absences are excused or unexcused, a meeting with the parent/guardian shall be scheduled to identify potential remedies. If absences continue to be a concern, despite intervention attempts, the school may make a recommendation for filing a truancy petition. (§§1003.26 and 984.141, Florida Statutes)

Habitual Truant -A student is considered habitually truant when he/she has 15 unexcused absences within 90 calendar days with or without the knowledge or consent of the parent/guardian(§ 1003.01, Florida Statutes). Accumulated tardies and early check outs shall be considered unexcused absences. At the high school level or at a 6-12 combination school,-six (6)sevefl fl-) unexcused tardies, missed periods, or early checkouts will equal one unexcused absence for the purpose of defining a habitual truant. At the middle school level, six unexcused tardies or early checkouts will equal one unexcused absence for the purpose of defming a habitual truant. At the elementary school level, four_unexcused tardies or early checkouts will equal one unexcused absence for the purpose of defming a habitual truant. Legal actions, including possible criminal charges, will be pursued when the parent/guardian ignores school attendance requirements. The Superintendent must provide the Department of Highway and Motor Vehicles (DHMV) with the name of each habitually truant student, age 14-18. The DHMV may not issue a driver's license or learner's permit to and shall suspend any previously issued license of any student

an aaalt who is listed as an emergoney eontaet en the ,\nm,al Stnaent Centaet Form. A photo ID is required from the adult listed on the Annual Stnaoot Contaet Form who is requesting the release of the student to his/her custody. Students who drive to school at BHS and SHS may not be released or signed out prior to the end of the regular school day over the phone by a parent, guardian, or other iodividual without the authorization of the principal/designee io emergency situations or circumstances that warraot leaviog school campus without the presence of a parent, guardian, or other authorized iodividual.

This note should be provided to the school within three (3) days upon the student's return to school. The principal or designee has the authority, within the guidelioes of the law, to detennine if an absence is excused or unexcused.

Make-Up Work- Parents and students with absences are responsible for making arrangements with the teacher to make up work and assigmnents missed while absent. Students with excused absences will be allowed to make up work for full credit. Students with nnexcused absences will be allowed to make up work with a maximumminimum-of70% credit. All missed work is due within a reasonable amount of time followiog the return to school (two days for each day absent) with the followiog exceptions: • Test or exams assigned prior to absence will be taken on the day the student returns to school, • Work assigned prior to absence will be taken on the day the student returns to school, • Long-term assigmnents and projects must be turned io on the day the student returns to school, • Students checkiog in or out on the day a long-term assignment is due must him the assignment io by the end of that

For truancy purposes and documentation for court action, ~"8tw<>Ef-unexcused tardies to school or six (6)seven (7) early checkouts from school will equal one unexcused absence at the high school or combination school. Six ( 6) unexcused tardies to school or six ( 6) early checkouts from school will equal one unexcused absence at the middle school. Four (4) nnexcused tardies to school or four (4) early checkouts from school will equal one m1excused absence at the elementary level. This number is detennined by the number of periods at the school. Tardies are disrnptive to the learning enviromnent and have a negative impact on student achievement. A student is tardy when they arrive to school or class after the begioning bell has sonnded without an approved excuse. Leaving school early before the end of the school day also falls under this categ01y. For K-8 students, the parent must accompany the sh1dent to the office when they are tardy. For secondary and 6-12 schools, the student must report to the attendance clerk.

TECHNOLOGY - STUDENT ACCEPTABLE TELECOMMUNICATIONS/ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS USE POLICY AND AGREEMENT The Suwannee County School District (SCSD) provides computers and network capabilities to students for the purpose of enhancing instrnction through technological resources. K-5 classrooms are equipped with a class set of Chromebook devices for student use on campus. Students in grades 6-12 are issued a Chromebook device to use both on campus and at home, similar to the issuance of a textbook. If the device is damaged due to misuse, the parent/student will be responsible for the cost or repair not to exceed $250200 for a device damaged beyond repair.

The Suwannee County Schools Network is an electronic network which serves public education in accessing the Internet. The Internet is an "information highway'' connecting thousands of computers and millions of individual people all over the world. Students, teachers, and support staff of SCSD with network accounts have access to electronic mail (E-Mail) with the ability to communicate with people all over the world. Information, news, and data can also be received from a variety of world-wide sources.

With access to computers and people all over the world comes the availability of some material that may not be considered to be of educational value within the context of the school setting. Efforts have been made to direct participation to education­related materials only. However, on a global network, it is impossible to control all materials. The Suwannee County School Board has established Acceptable Use Guidelines for all users of technology and the Internet in the school system. If any user violates any of these guidelines, his/her access to the network maybe terminated and appropriate disciplinary and/or legal action will be taken.

A student's activities while using District devices and/or network resources must be in support of education and research and be consistent with the educational objectives of the SCSD. Students are responsible for good behavior on school computer networks just as they are in a classroom or school hallway. Devices and network storage areas will be treated like school lockers. School and IT authorities have the right to review and monitor all District devices and/or information stored on the network.

Students may not use a personally owned Chromebook or network alternative for educational purposes on campus. The use of personal USB Flash Drives is authorized to students for educational pmposes permitting that such use complies with all policies set by SCSD. Using other personal electronic resources, including, but not limited to, digital cameras, tablets, cell phones, digital recorders, MP3 players, and iPods are prohibited unless student has permission from the classroom teacher where the electronic resource will be used. SCSD does not insure personal property of students, staff, teachers, or the public brought on school property. Property of this nature that is stolen, damaged, or lost is the sole responsibility of the owner. The SCSD assumes no responsibility for costs associated with loss or damage to devices not owned by SCSD while on the network. SCSD assumes no responsibility for the technical support or functionality of personal technology brought on school property.

All users must read and be familiar with the IT Policies and Procedures manual. The most recent version is located on the district website at https://www.suwannee.kl2.fl.us/information-technology. Examples of prohibited activities according to the manual are as follows:

UNACCEPTABLE USE AND PROHIBITED ACTMTIES I. Revealing yom account password to others or allowing use of your account by others is prohibited. This includes family

SECTION IV: DISCIPLINARY INTERVENTIONS

The SCSD philosophy of student behavior is one that employs a structured, systematic approach designed to support learning. Classroom management, student motivation, and positive reinforcement generate an atmosphere where student rules are viewed as guidelines for academic success.

20

-33-

The SCSD will provide safe, comfortable classrooms and campus enviromuent and maximize opportunities for student learning which are the most important factors in governing student behavior. All students' interests, strengths, and cultural backgrounds are welcomed and valued.

The SCSD believes that all students have the right to a safe and effective learning enviromuent and that teachers have the right to a safe and effective teaching enviromuent. Discipline issues are minimized when students are engaged in meaningful and interesting activities. Students do best with positive reinforcement techniques. Students need to have structure and limits.

The SCSD believes that discipline and classroom management exist as additional learning experiences for students. Discipline should come from a desire to teach students to self-assess and self-regulate their behavior. A well-disciplined student understands what is socially and personally healthy and productive, and can correct his or her own behavior when straying from that ideal. This kind of student can resolve conflicts in a healthy way and koows what behavior is productive within social communities. Likewise, classroom management exists to guide students toward positive behaviors. It not only maximizes the time spent learning in the classroom, but it also serves to eliminate many situations in which students are tempted to exhibit negative behaviors. Effective classroom management helps ensure student success.

The SCSD believes that as professional educators, the SCSD is charged with providing a safe, structured, and orderly enviromuent for all students, staff, and school visitors. Further, the SCSD believes that expecting, teaching, and upholding high behavioral standards are key components in preparing students to be successful and productive citizens in the greater society. In order to fulfill these responsibilities and achieve these goals, as a District, all SCSD schools will: 1. Follow the Student Code of Conduct and School Board Policies, 2. Provide training for staff and parents in effective behavior practices, 3. Promote positive behavioral supports, 4. Administer disciplinary measures with fairness and consistency, and 5. Engage parents as partners in identifying and maintaining student behavior as an educational priority for all

SCSD students.

SECTION V: DUE PROCESS

DUE PROCESS PROCEDURES FOR SUSPENSIONS A student accused of an offense which in the opinion of the principal/designee would require suspension from school or bus shall be afforded the following due process procedures. If a student is formally charged with a felony occurring off property owned by the SCSD by a prosecuting attorney, the principal/designee shall determine if the student's presence on campus threatens the orderly enviromnent or safety of others. An administrative hearing should be scheduled if it is determined the felony charge is upheld. The information shall be provided to the Superintendent who shall determine the length of the suspension by an administrative placement in an alternative setting. A recommendation to expel a student shall be determined by the Superintendent and submitted to the School Board if the student is adjudicated guilty of a felony. Additional procedures for students with disabilities are described in the subsection ESE: Suspension and Expulsions. In emergency situations, these procedures may be modified so long as reasonable efforts are made to provide substantially similar opportunities for due process.

Step 1-The student must be told by the principal/designee of the reason(s) for consideration of suspension from school or from the school bus (not to exceed 10 days). Step 2 - The student must be given the opportunity to present the student's side of the matter either verbally or in writing and must have the opportunity to present witnesses to the incident. Step 3 - The principal/designee shall make a determination as to whether or uot the studeut is guilty of the misconduct, and if so, what the terms of the disciplinary response will be. The student shall be informed of the determinatiou. If the determination is to impose suspension, the notice of suspension shall be in writing. The following information shall be included in the written notice of suspension to the parent/guardian/student and the Superintendent:

• Nature of the offense, • The date of the offense, the beginning date of the suspension, and the date on which the student may return, • Any condition involving the suspension, such as a possible reduction of the suspension.

Step 4 -The principal/designee shall report each suspension from school or the school bus in writing to the student's parent/guardian and to the Superintendent/designee. Any suspension notice to parent/guardian/student, shall be hand­delivered by the principal or an administrative staff member or shall be sent by first class mail if the principal or an administrative staff member documents a personal contact (not an attempt or recorded message) with the parent/guardian concerning the suspension and that the paperwork is being sent by mail. If contact cannot be made with the parent/guardian, then the notice may be sent by certified mail. This report shall be mailed and delivery initiated within 24 hours of the start of the suspension or on the next regular workday. Reasonable efforts shall be made to contact the parent/guardian prior to the start of the suspension. If the parent/guardian cannot be reached prior to the start of the suspension, the principal/designee may determine that the suspension will start without the prior contact with the parent/guardian. Step 5 - The shident and parent/ guardian have a right to a conference with the principal/designee upon request of the parent/guardian to appeal the discipline imposed. The principal shall have the discretion to reduce or cancel the suspension if it is felt that it would be in the best interest of the student and school to do so. Step 6 - If the parent/guardian feels that due process was not provided, they may appeal by contacting the office of Student Services or the Assistant Superintendent of Administration to further discuss the matter. This shall not be interpreted as permitting the District administrator to substihite their judgment for the judgment of the principal.

DUE PROCESS PROCEDURES FOR ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL PLACEMENT Same as for suspension decisions.

DUE PROCESS PROCEDURES FOR EXPULSION A student accused of an offense which, in the opinion of the principal/designee may require expulsion from school or bus, shall be afforded the due process described below. Additional procedures for students with disabilities are described in the subsection ESE: Suspension and Expulsions. In emergency situations, these procedures may be modified as long as reasonable efforts are made to provide substantially similar opportunities.

Step 1-The student must be told by the principal/designee of the reason(s) for consideration of expulsion. Step 2 - The student must be given the opporti.mity to present the student's side of the matter either verbally or in writing and rnust have the opportunity to present witnesses to the incident. Step 3 - The principal/designee shall make a determination as to whether or not the student is guilty of the misconduct, and if so, what the terms of the disciplinary response will be. The student shall be informed of the determination. If the principal/designee determines that there are sufficient grounds for expulsion, then the principal/designee shall inform the student of the suspension from school for ten days and that a recommendation for expulsion is being considered.

28

-41-

Step 4 - The principal/designee shall report in writing to the student's parent/guardian and the Superintendent that the student has been suspended for ten days and that a recommendation for expulsion is being considered. Any suspension notice to a parent/guardian/student shall be hand-delivered by the principal or an administrative staff member, or shall be sent by first-class mail if the principal or an administrative staff member documents a personal contact (not an attempt or recorded message) with the parent/guardian concerning the suspension and that the paperwork is beiog sent by mail. If contact cannot be made with the parent/guardian, then the notice may be sent by certified mail. This shall be mailed withio 24 hours of the start of the initial I 0-day suspension or on the next regular workday. Reasonable effort shall be made to contact the parent/guardian prior to the start of the suspension. If the parent/ guardian cannot be reached prior to the start of the suspension, the principal/designee may determine that the suspension will start without the prior contact with the parent/guardian. Step 5 -The Superintendent/designee shall review the principal's recommendation for expulsion withio five school days of receipt and shall recommend whatever action is deemed appropriate. The Superintendent shall notify the parent/guardian and the principal/designee of the decision withio 24 hours. Step 6 - The parent/guardian shall have the right to a heariog with the Superintendent/designee to challenge the extension or imposition of an expulsion. The heariog shall be informal in nature and shall be granted on written request. Step 7 - The parent/guardian/student shall be ioformed of any alternatives, if appropriate, and changes shall be made io the student's assignment or program. Step 8 - If the Superintendent decides to recommend expulsion, the parent/guardian shall be notified by certified mail of the heariog at which the School Board Heariog Officer will consider the recommendation. Failure to request a hearing in writiog io a timely manner shall be considered a waiver of the student's right to a heariog to contest the charges. Step 9 - The parent/guardian shall have the right to appear before the School Board Heariog Officer, as designated dependiog on circumstances leading to expulsion, which will act on the Superiotendent's recommendation for expulsion. Step 10 - The School Board Hearing Officer's Recommended Order and any exceptions filed by the Parents/Guardians thereto, will be presented for a vote by the full School Board at the next available public meeting. Step 11 -A student who is expelled from the District by School Board action shall not be afforded a rehearing before the School Board unless prior evidence is proven to be false or new evidence is substantiated that was omitted from the origioal hearing. A request for a reheariog shall be made by the parent/guardian to the Superintendent/designee. The Superintendent's office shall determine whether the expulsion shall be reheard by the School Board.

Note: The Superiotendent/designee may recommend to the School Board expulsion of a student who is found guilty of a felony. However, any student subject to discipline or expulsion for the unlawful possession or use of any substance under Chapter 893, Florida Statutes may be entitled to a waiver of the disciplioe or expulsion if the student divulges infonnation leadiog to the arrest and conviction of the person who supplied such controlled substance or if the student voluutarily discloses the tmlawful possession of such controlled substance prior to arrest. For the purpose of this section, "voluntarily discloses" means that the individual comes forward on his/her own volition, without coercion from outside influences (§1006.09, Florida Statutes).

ESE: SUSPENSIONS AND EXPULSIONS Students with disabilities identified as exceptional education students may be suspended io accordance with SCSD policy for a total of ten days. In case of serious breach of conduct involving the health, safety, and welfare of students and SCSD employees, appropriate alternatives for allowing the student to continue receiving educational programs and services during the suspension may include, but are not limited to, a reduced day program, transfer to a more restrictive placement for a designated period of time, attendance for special class(es) only, modified school day (i.e., student may come to the school campus at the end of the school day for the instructional program), home instruction, and other options.

Any recommendation for the expulsion of any exceptional education student with a disability shall be made io accordance with the rules promulgated by the State Board of Education and Federal Regulations outlined in the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA). The expulsion of an exceptional education student shall not result in a complete cessation of educational services; the District is responsible for providiog the student's education duriog the expulsion in accordance with a revised Individual Education Plan (IEP). The principal/designee is responsible for takiog appropriate action consistent with School Board policy and the Procedural Safeguards for Parents of Students with Disabilities. The following procedures shall be followed for the expulsion of exceptional education students:

• Step 1 - The principal shall be responsible for convening a manifestation committee. The committee shall include, but not be limited to, the Director of Student Services/designee, the school psychologist, the guidaace counselor, ESE school specialists, the involved ESE teacher, and the priocipal/administrative designee. Proper parent/guardian notification/iovitation procedures must be followed.

• Step 2 -The committee shall review the student's IEP and shall determine whether the student's behavior bears a relationship to the student's exceptionality. This decision will be taken into consideration when reviewiog all evidence

29

-42-

and making recommendations. If the committee determines the student's behavior is in relation to the exceptionality, the team may modify the student's IEP in accordance with current needs, and expulsion will not be applied ( cessation of educational services is not an option for a student with a disability). Procedures in State Board of Education Rules shall apply when a student's conduct does not bear a relationship to the exceptionality.

• Step 3 -The decision of the committee shall be documented. The student's IEP may be revised to reflect a modification of the current special program or an alternative placement or an indication that the exceptionality is not a precipitating factor and the student is expected to behave in accordance with the rules established in the Student Conduct and Discipline Code.

• Step 4 -Any change from the student's school placement to an alternative education setting must be reviewed within 45 days. The principaVdesignee of student's home school must attend the meeting to review the interim alternative education placement prior to extending the alternative setting or returning the student to his/her home school.

• Step 5 - The principaVdesignee is responsible for taking appropriate action consistent with School Board policy and the Procedural Safeguards for Parents of Students with Disabilities.

SCHOOL COUNSELING PROGRAMS All SCSD schools have certified school cotmselors that provide a variety of services to students. These services are presented to students in classrooms, small groups, and in individual counseling sessions. If you do not wish your child to have access to these programs and activities, please notify the school principal in writing.

time faculty member in the same discipline who acts as a content "go to" person.

• The Director of Curriculum and Instruction will conduct periodic evaluations of the performance

of adjunct faculty members. Such evaluations may include classroom visitations, assessment of

instructional materials including tests and other measures of student progress, and student

evaluations of instruction. These evaluations will be maintained in the Office of Academic

Affairs.

• The faculty handbook is accessible through the NFC website. All faculty are expected to adhere

to the professional guidelines, rules, and expectations therein.

• The student handbook is accessible through the NFC website. The student handbook is included

in the College Catalog available on the College website and details add/drop and withdrawal

policies, student code of conduct, grading polices, critical dates, etc. All faculty are expected to

adhere to the professional guidelines, rules, and expectations therein.

Personnel Assignments:

• The Dean of Academic Affairs will be responsible for approving faculty to teach dual enrollment

courses. The high school is responsible for providing the College Chief Academic Officer with the

graduate transcripts of a resident faculty member that it desires to put forward as a possible

teacher of NFC courses.

courses at the high school.

• School District personnel teaching dual enrollment classes on the high school campus during

regular high school hours are paid for by the school district.

• There will be an orientation for instructors assigned to teach dual enrollment courses. This will

be part of the College preplanning activities and will be directed by the Director of Curriculum

and Instruction.

• The purpose of the orientation session will be to share important information and instructional

materials that will support and enhance teaching effectiveness. Instructional effectiveness

throughout the district remains a high priority for the College.

11. Exceptions, if any, to the rules, guidelines, and expectations stated in the student handbook of the

postsecondary institution which apply to faculty members.

The College student handbook does not state any exception to rules, guidelines, or expectations for

faculty members.

12. The responsibilities of the school district regarding the determination of student eligibility before

participating in the dual enrollment program and the monitoring of student performance while

participating in the dual enrollment program.

The high school will designate an individual responsible for serving as the contact person for dual

enrollment. The high school will be responsible for the following administrative tasks:

• Identifying students who may be eligible for and benefit from dual enrollment.

• Verifying that the student is eligible to register for dual enrollment courses on the basis of

documented placement test scores, high school GPA, and readiness for college.

• Ensuring that the student registrations are in the Office of Dual Enrollment in accordance with

the published registration period.

• Assuring reasonable access to schools and students by College personnel for purposes of

program information and dissemination.

• Providing staff to assist College personnel with facilities and requested instructional equipment.

• Responding to requests for transcripts for dual enrollment students in a timely manner.

The evaluation of students and the assigning of grades are the prerogatives and responsibilities of the

faculty member assigned to teach the class In which the students are enrolled. The method for

determining the final course grade, including activities to be graded and their respective weighting shall

be specified in the course syllabus and distributed to the student. Any unavoidable changes to the

grading policies in the syllabus must be communicated in writing to each student in the course.

Instructors may assign only those grades specified in the catalog. The instructor of record must assign all

grades in a given course.

All faculty at the College send "early alerts" to academic advisors two times a semester when students

are underperforming in class. The Dual Enrollment Coordinator will send the student and the high school

2022-2023 Articulation Agreement- Suwannee Page 10 of 19

-121-

SCSB 2023-02 (REVISED/RENEW AL)

guidance office a copy of the unsatisfactory performance notice. If more information is needed, the Dual

Enrollment Coordinator will contact the instructor.

If an emergency prevents the instructor from assigning final grades, the College department chair using

original student records, course syllabus, and other appropriate information will assign final grades.

Under such circumstances, a written explanation of the situation will be attached to the final grade

roster.

Student who earn a grade of D, F, or WF will not be able to register the following semester. After a one

semester "sit out," the student may register with the approval of the high school counselor or designee.

Courses in which a grade of D, F, or WF is earned may be repeated one time for grade forgiveness if

approved by the high school counselor or designee and if the college GPA is 2.D or higher. All grades,

including those forgiven, will remain on the College transcript and may be used for admissions and

financial aid eligibility.

If a dual enrolled student withdraws from a college credit course and received the grade of "W,'' the

high school guidance counselor or designee makes the determination whether or not the student

registers the next term. Any student receiving a "W" grade in a course may repeat the course with the

approval of the high school counselor or designee. Student are ineligible for dual enrollment if the

college GPA is below 2.0 or unweighted high school GPA is below 3.0.

All grades, including "W" grades for withdrawal, count as course attempts and become part of the

student's college transcript; they may affect subsequent postsecondary admission and financial aid. As

dual enrolled, the student is limited to two attempts per course.

Eligible secondary students are entitled to participate in dual enrollment for a maximum of 70 credit

hours. Students requesting to dual enroll in excess of 70 credit hours will be required to submit a written

request to the Dean of Academic Affairs. The decision of the Dean is final.

Regular and consistent attendance facilitates student success. Absences beyond the equivalent of two

weeks of ciass are considered to be excessive and thus may impact a student's course grade. Typically,

two weeks of ciass would be four class meetings for a three-credit hour course on MW or TR. There are

no "excused" absences. An absence is an absence, and students are responsible for material covered

during their absence. In addition, if there is no verifiable participation within the first week of the term,

the student will be dropped from the class for nonattendance. This includes all methods of delivery.

CWE programs may have specific attendance policies. See course syllabi for specific information.

13. The responsibilities of the postsecondary institution regarding the transmission of student grades

in dual enrollment courses to the school district.

The College will maintain official student records in the Office of the Registrar. The Office of Dual

Enrollment will send student letter grades to the high school guidance office within ten (10) days of the

last class day of the College term. This letter grade shall be posted to the high school transcript, section

1007.271(20), Florida Statutes (2021).

The College and School Board shall jointly assume responsibility for the implementation and

enforcement of any rights and responsibilities that arise by the creation, maintenance, and use of any

"records" and "reports" regarding any high school students enrolled in accordance with all applicable

2022-2023 Articulation Agreement- Suwannee Page 11 of 19

-122-

SCSB 2023-02 {REVISED/RENEW AL}

laws, including but not limited to section 1002.22, Florida Statutes (2021). Each shall be responsible for

"records" and "reports" maintained, housed, or stored by the respective institutions.

14. A funding provision that delineates costs incurred by each entity.

• Section 1007.271(21)(n), Florida Statutes (2021), Dual Enrollment Programs, requires school

districts pay the standard tuition rate per credit hour to the College for dual enrollment

instruction. The methodology for determining student cost is outlined in Appendix C.

• The non-public secondary schools shall be held to the same statutory requirements regarding

tuition payment to the College as the school districts.

• For fall and spring terms, an invoice will be sent to the school districts and the non-public

secondary schools at the conclusion of the college term's verification of class attendance. The

invoice will reflect the total number of hours enrolled times the established tuition rate per

credit hour as outlined in Appendix C. Payment is due upon receipt of the invoice.

• School districts and non-public secondary schools will not be invoiced for students who drop

college classes during the prescribed drop/add period.

• School districts and non-public secondary schools will be invoiced for students who withdraw

("W" grade) during the withdrawal period as outlined in the academic calendar.

Enrollment Program. However, the application fee will be assessed when students enter a

degree program at North Florida College following graduation from high school.

• The choice of textbooks and instructional materials shall be a college responsibility with the

actual selection being a function of the faculty teaching a specific course. Upon approval of an

adopted text(s) for a course, this adoption shall remain in effect for two full calendar years. In

urgent cases, permission to discontinue a text at an earlier date may be granted by the

appropriate college department chair.

• The School Board will provide the student with the required textbook(s) and other instructional

materials. The School Board will take ownership of the textbooks and other instructional

materials at the time of purchase and will reuse the materials whenever possible in future dual

enrollment courses, as long as they are required for such courses. The School Board is

responsible for developing its own procedures for distributing textbooks in a timely manner for

student use and for collecting textbooks upon the conclusion of the semester. The College will

provide a list of required textbooks for each course on the College website at least 45 days prior

to the start of the term.

• Consumable materials assigned for use with dual enrollment courses will be issued to students.

The cost of these consumables will be included on the invoice sent to the school districts and

the non-public secondary schools at the conclusion of the college term's verification of class

attendance. Costs are outlined in Appendix C.

• All students are exempt from the payment of tuition and all fees, section 1007.271(2), Florida Statutes (2021).

15. Any institutional responsibilities for student transportation, if provided.

The student, the parents of said student, or the School Board shall provide transportation.

of its extension locations. The School District agrees to arrange and provide accommodations for

dual enrolled students receiving instruction on the high school campus. The high school

guidance counselor will ensure that the College determinations are followed at the high school
