Unplanned absences are unforeseeable absences. Examples may include illnesses or family emergencies. In the case of unplanned absences, the following must occur:
- Parents must call or email (email is preferable) the Rhetoric School Office in the morning to report when their students are absent for unplanned reasons. Failure to notify the Rhetoric School Office will result in the student being designated as truant.
- Students, if possible, should contact their teachers by email and ensure they understand the expectations prior to their return. Students must prepare for their return by ensuring that they are up to date with assignments, and plan to follow all Missed Assignment policies (see above).
