Honor Pass
Juniors and Seniors who are on course to graduate in accordance with District standards and meet the criteria below may fill out a form to apply for an Honor Pass.
All students are required to be enrolled in 7 periods-
5 solid classes and a combination of an honor pass, study hall, or teacher’s aide.
A Junior may have up to 1 Honor Pass and a Senior may have up to 2 Honor Passes. Honor Passes will NOT be granted during periods 2 and 3.
In order to qualify for an Honor pass, a student must meet the following criteria:
JUNIORS
- Must have a 3.25 GPA from prior semester
- Less than or equal to 3 tardies per class during prior semester
- Less than or equal to 5 total absences in any class per semester, no unexcused or truancy based absences
- No behavior referrals from the prior semester
- If any of these conditions are violated, Honor Pass privileges may be revoked
- Administrators will be responsible for any exceptions or alterations to the conditions outlined above.
SENIORS
- Must have a 3.0 GPA from prior semester to qualify for 1 Honor Pass
- Must have a 3.25 GPA from prior semester to qualify for 2 Honor Passes
- Less than or equal to 3 tardies per class during prior semester
- Less than or equal to 5 total absences in any class per semester, no unexcused or truancy based absences
- No behavior referrals from the prior semester
- If any of these conditions are violated, Honor Pass privileges may be revoked
- Administrators will be responsible for any exceptions or alterations to the conditions outlined above.
An Honor Pass is a privilege! At the end of any quarter grading period, a Junior or Senior holding an Honor Pass who is failing a class or not meeting a sufficiently high academic standard, may at the discretion of the administration, have their Honor Pass revoked. This student will be assigned to attend a scheduled study hall or academic course and may reapply for an Honor Pass at the end of the semester.
Any abuse of Honor Pass time (ex. - excessive tardies or absenteeism, handbook violations, missing assignments, etc.) will result in the loss of this privilege for the student. Students with an Honor Pass should not be loitering in the halls, the gym or the lobby. The student must leave campus or work in the library or with a teacher (if allowed). Students must apply for the Honor Pass privilege at the end of each semester. Forms may be picked up in the counseling office.
