Trojan Athletic Patrons (TAP)


As our Fall Sports are underway, we want all our school community members to consider joining our Trojan Athletic Patrons (TAP) for only $20.00. 

Patrons support our athletic program and receive benefits like free parking to football games, a Trojan Athletics t-shirt and complementary ticket and popcorn for one sporting event this year. 

Visit MySchoolBucks.com from our school website to join today.

Attendance

It is critical that high school students arrive to school on time and are only dismissed early for essential personal matters so that they are not denied credit due to excessive absences in one or more of their class periods. 

Parents can only excuse 5 absences for student illness per semester without a doctor's note.

Every high school course earns a student a Carnegie unit towards graduation (usually 4 per semester). In order to receive credit for a course, a student must earn a passing grade and have 5 or fewer unexcused absences. 

Students must be present for at least half of the period (45-minutes) of a class period in order to be marked present for the class. 

 

Tardy Policy

Students also will be held accountable for arriving to every class on time.  Tardies to class will be accrued per class period and students will begin receiving consequences after a student’s 3rd tardy.

 

Dress Code and Student IDs:  

Students should arrive at school within Carolina High Dress Code expectations and with Student ID worn visibly around their necks.  If a student needs a replacement ID, one will be printed for them at the entrance for $5.00 or charged to their account.  Students entering out of dress code will be supported to correct their attire to within dress code regulations or a parent will be called to bring a change of clothes.  Adherence to the dress code expectations will begin Monday, August 19th and continue throughout the remainder of the year.

 

Cell Phone Policy

The Carolina High School Cell Phone policy will remain the same as last year. 

  • Cell phones are not permitted in the classrooms at any time. 
  • Cell phones can be used before school, after school, in between classes and during lunch. 
  • Our cell phone policy is designed to protect the learning environment from distractions and keep students focused on learning. 
  • Violations of the cell phone policy will result in parent contacts, in-school suspension, and out of school suspension in accordance with our Carolina Progressive Discipline policy.
