OMS Attendance Policy:
- When your student has 5 unexcused absences, you will receive a letter informing you that your student has 5 unexcused absences, and you will have to attend an Attendance Meeting with an administrator.
OMS Tardy Policy:
It is very important that all students arrive on time to school so that they are in their first class no later than 7:15. An Administrative Detention will be assigned when students have reached five (5) tardies in first semester
(August – December). For every tardy after five (5) in first semester, another Administrative Detention will be assigned. Tardies will start over for second semester which begins in January.
All Administrative Detentions will be held on Mondays, from 2:25 – 3:30. Students assigned are to report to the theatre following afternoon dismissal and lockers. Failure to report may result in a suspension to a parent conference or further consequences.
Parents are responsible for transportation and should pick up the student in front of school at 3:30.
