Clarification on College Visits from Greenville County
Schools:
School Board Policy JBF(P) under the section
titled College Visitations states that "high school juniors and seniors may
be granted released time to visit college campuses. In the rule that
accompanies this policy which is JBF(R) under College Visitations, it states
that when considering requests for college visitation, principals shall be
guided by the following:
1. Requests for approval of absences for
college visitation must be submitted in writing by a parent or guardian
at least one week in advance of the scheduled visit.
2. Approval will be granted for no more
than three visits per school year.
3. Each request should specify duration
of the visit and travel time, which may be approved at the discretion of the
principal.
4. Absences approved for college visitation
will be "excused" absences and students will be allowed to make up classroom
work.
I hope that this will answer any
questions/concerns that you may have regarding this issue.
