Attendance Incentive Program Narbonne High School Attendance Incentive Program The purpose of the Attendance Incentive Program (AIP) is to improve student achievement by rewarding regular attendance and encouraging participation inschool activities. In this way we hope to engender habits of good attendance, good work habits and good citizenship and thereby increase our students’ aptitude for success. The proposal for this program was first made during LEARN Committee meetings in the 1997-1998 school year. It was originally made to stop the problem of increased absenteeism in the spring semester of the senior year and was called the Senior Contract; it was subsequently expanded to include all four classes. In 2007 a subcommittee of the Narbonne Leadership Council reviewed the program. This subcommittee was composed of faculty members, administrators, students, and parents. This committee, and subsequently the entire Leadership Council, decided that the Attendance Incentive Program was still required. To remain “AIP Eligible” a student must have five (5) or fewer full day absences (i.e., 30 period absences for a student with 6 classes per day) in the current semester AND fewer than five (5) total U’s on the last progress report. (Note: A student will become “AIP Ineligible” if he/she exceeds EITHER of these two criteria.) The program is based on rewards for “AIP Eligible” students and on withholding privileges from “AIP Ineligible” students. “AIP Ineligible” students cannot attend reward or class-level activities. (For students in the second semester of their senior year this includes both their prom and their graduation ceremony.) Certain absences, such as long-term/chronic illnesses, can be waived for AIP purposes upon appeal. (Click her to see more information on those absences that can be appealed.) AIP appeal forms are located in the Attendance Office. They are to be completed and returned to the Attendance Office with all of the required documentation. After receipt of the completed appeal form and required documentation the AIP Appeal Committee will review the appeal and make a decision on whether to grant the appeal or not. The student will be notified as soon as the AIP Appeal Committee makes a decision. |
