REQUEST FOR EXCUSED ABSENCE FOR EDUCATIONAL REASONS
Please complete the following form at least one week in advance to request an excused absence for edcucational opportunities. 
For an excused absence for educational reasons, the intent of the experience should have been educational from the outset and comparable to that which the student would have experienced in school. Family trips and vacations that were not designed, initially, to be educational may not be excused.  Signing this form documents that this absence is for valid educational purposes.  
The North Carolina General Assembly passed General Statute 115C-378, entitled the Compulsory Attendance Law, in 1955 and amended it through 1992. This law, in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the North Carolina State Board of Education, makes parents and legal guardians responsible and accountable to insure that their children’s absences from school are valid. Ten(10) types of valid absences are established by the rules and regulations set forth by the State Board of Education. Two of those types are absences resulting from religious observances and educational opportunities of a significant nature. Bear Grass Charter School requires advanced permission for excused absences for educational purposes. The principal may/should deny the request if the cumulative effect of such absences would substantially interfere with the education of the student. If the principal does not approve this request, you will be promptly notified.
