If you wish to donate other books, they can be passed on to classroom collections or donated to the public library. The Literary Guild assists the librarian in the organization and maintenance of the library. Class Lists Each year, the Principal and teachers will thoughtfully and prayerfully make decisions about student class assignments. At Heritage, we strive to provide every student with the best possible academic experience each year. Our goal is to fairly address the needs of all students in each classroom, therefore, requests for specific teachers or classes cannot be accepted. Class groupings of students are determined by a number of factors, including academic performance, as well as social and disciplinary needs. Parents are always encouraged to communicate with the classroom teacher and Principal throughout the school year regarding any areas of concern for their student. Class lists for the coming school year are emailed in late July/early August. Tutoring Students who could benefit from tutoring have this option at Heritage. Arrangements can be made for after-school tutoring by Heritage teachers if available, with payment per agreement and paid directly to the teacher. Make-up Work Students who are absent for any reason are required to make up work missed in each subject. Normally, one day will be allowed for each day missed, except in cases of prolonged absences where the teacher involved may make other provisions. It is the student’s and the parents’ responsibility to obtain all make-up work from his/her teacher. Failure to obtain make-up work is no excuse for not doing work missed. When tests are missed due to an absence, they are to be taken at the teacher’s convenience. Parents are responsible to make the necessary arrangements. Probation A student who is consistently unsatisfactory in achievement, or – in the opinion of the teacher – is not making sufficient effort, will be placed on academic probation. The parents will be informed of this action. If the teacher and administration do not see marked improvement by the next grading period, the parents may be asked to withdraw the student or to enter him in a specially designed program of study. A student will be automatically placed on academic probation upon receiving a “U” (grades 1-2) or an “F” (grades 3-5) in any two academic subjects during a given quarterly grading period.
