To minimize confusion and ensure student safety on what we know will be a very busy day, we are requesting that unless students have documented medical appointments that there be no early dismissals on Wednesday. As a reminder, students are permitted five days of excused absences in their BLS careers over and above absences allowed for illness, religious holidays and other obligations. Students who would need to leave school early to accommodate travel arrangements or otherwise, are advised to consider using one of their five career absences. You can find the absence policy on pages 7-9 in the BLS 2021-22 Agenda Book and the absence form here.
