• Students with two (2) or fewer absences and an 85 average may exempt final exams. Three (3) exemptions are allowed per semester with no repeat in subjects during the school year.
• Tardies affect a student's eligibility for exam exemptions – every three (3) tardies count as an absence, for every class period, no matter where they occur across the schedule.
• Absence from a class on the alternative block schedule may have a significant negative impact on a student's success.
• Many subjects involve group projects and active student participation which is difficult to make up due to an absence. In addition, participation in extracurricular activities limits available time for make up work within the classroom.

Are you a student about to get your Drivers License? Here's some information you need. Students requesting a TEA/VOE (Texas Education Agency Verification of Enrollment) form as part of the license application process must be enrolled and in attendance for at least 90 percent of the days classes are scheduled for the semester preceding the date of the application. DPS requires a TEA/VOE form for each permit, license and renewal until the student is 18 years of age.

The VOE form is valid 30 days from date of issue when school is in session. During the summer it is valid from the last week of spring semester until the first day of the fall semester.

If you have been absent from any class more than 4 times during the previous semester, you will be denied a TEA/VOE form. If you desire a permit or a license, you must attend school.

Students may sign up for the TEA form in the black notebook located on the counter; right hand side of the main office. When school is in session, students should allow a minimum of 2 working days for the form to be completed. When the student's name is highlighted the form is ready for pick up in the front office. The form is not delivered to the student.

During the summer the forms are generally processed once a week. Please plan accordingly.

Students who have an 85 or better average and no more than 2 absences in a class may exempt the exam. Three tardies equal an absence and are cumulative across all blocks. An exam in a full year course may be selected either first OR second semester. A student is limited to 3 exemptions per semester and is accountable for keeping up with the number of exemptions.

Absences by Period And Tardies Cumulative Status

Students are expected to have their student ID with them at all times
when on campus or at school functions. They are required to produce or surrender their ID whenever asked by a school employee.

Students with an Off-Campus period must leave campus unless they have a pass for the library or tutoring with a teacher. The pass must be obtained prior to them staying on campus. Those students must be in the appropriate room during the entire period. Any student found on campus without such a pass during 1st/5th period or 4th/8th periods will receive consequences, which may include being assigned to a class for the remainder of the semester.

This includes pulling them out to check the time, messages, etc. Phones are not to be seen during the school day. This includes during lunches and passing periods!!!

Teaching students to learn that being punctual is a requirement in most occupations is an important part of teaching the “whole” student.  That social part of their learning can be just as valuable to them as anything else that they learn.  For that reason, our tardy policy is something that must be supported and adhered to.  

A student is considered tardy to class if he/she is outside of the classroom without a hall pass when the tardy bell rings.  Teachers follow the guidelines to ensure that all Stony Point High School students have the same requirements for attendance.

Repeated tardiness will be handled by the student's Assistant Principal’s office.     

GUIDELINES:   Tardies accumulate for anentire semester – they do NOT start over each six weeks!

1 - 4	Free
5	½ Saturday – parent contact (3 hours -  9 a.m. until 12:00 p.m.)
10	1 Full Saturday - parent contact (6 hours – 9 a.m. –     3 p.m.)
15	2 Full Saturdays – parent contact
20	2 days ISS – parent conference
25	1 day suspension, 2days ISS Pre-RROC conference
30	Failure to comply referral – possible assignment to the Round Rock Opportunity Center

• Teachers should be standing at their door during the passing period and should encourage students to move into class prior to the tardy bell.  Once the tardy bell rings, students entering afterwards will be counted tardy on attendance by the teacher.

• Teachers having a conference period are to sweep the halls nearest their room.  (B-wing, 1^st floor and restrooms, etc.)  Students in the hall/restroom are to be directed immediately to their class.  Principals will also assist with this.

• Teachers should mark their attendance on their computer by 10 minutes into the period.  Students entering after that time are to be counted absent.   Teachers need to design their class in such a way that taking attendance is built into your plans at 15-20 minutes into the period.

The textbook room hours are from 8:30 - 11:30; 12:15 - 4:30, Room A 204. When students are finished with semester course textbooks, they are encouraged to return them to the textbook room. We are open before and after school, during lunches and passing periods.
