OUR ATTENDANCE POLICY
The River East Transcona School Division believes that regular atendance and punctuality are posi�ve
behaviours that should be fostered in our school system. Regular atendance is necessary for a student to gain
the full benefits of educa�onal instruc�on. The provincial department of educa�on has established a
minimum of 110 hours of instruc�on required for a credit. Under the Manitoba Public Schools Act, a student
must atend school regularly un�l the age of eighteen. A student who is not of compulsory school age is
required to atend regularly once he/she enrols. A student who refuses to atend or is habitually absent from
school is guilty of an offense under the Manitoba Public Schools Act. The parent/legal guardian must ensure
that their son/daughter is in school, otherwise is guilty of an offense under the Manitoba Public Schools Act.
Students enrolled in courses that are delivered through online/remote learning are expected to engage fully in
virtual classes and complete assignments through the MS Teams pla�orm. Parents will be contacted if
students are not par�cipa�ng ac�vely in class or online/remote learning.

Responsibility for Attendance
Responsibility for attendance rests jointly with the student and his/her parents/guardians. Student absences
are categorized as: a) School excused, b) Explained or c) Unexplained
a)   Absences are considered excused if the activity is initiated by the school. Excused absences may include,
     but are not limited to, field trips, sports trips, special group trips, conferences, suspensions, etc.
b)   Absences are considered explained if they are for unavoidable cause and are supported by a written note
     or telephone call from a parent or guardian.
c)   An unexplained absence is an act of truancy.

Attendance Procedures
Attendance is taken and recorded by teachers on a class-by-class basis each day. Where the parent/guardian
has determined that the student must be absent from school, the parent/guardian must inform the school
prior to the scheduled time for that class or no later than one day immediately after the student’s return to
school. Students who are 18 years of age or older may phone in their own explanations of absence. In case of
long-term illness, a medical certificate must support the student’s absences.

Absences
(a) A tiered intervention attendance support model will be used to assist students and parents when students
are not attending class as required by the Manitoba Public Schools Act. This support model encourages
communication between teacher, student, and parent before involving administration and divisional supports.
(b) Where exceptional circumstances warrant, such as a documented chronic illness, the school administration
may grant an extension to students who have accumulated excessive absences allowed under this policy.
(c) Where a student misses a test or examination due to an explained/excused absence, alternate
arrangements will be made by the student/teacher/principal. Where a final examination is missed due to
illness, a medical certificate is required.

                                                          Collège Pierre-Elliott-Trudeau 2021 - 2022             5
Collège Pierre-elliott-trudeau - Program of Studies 2021 2022 - River East Transcona School ...
(d) Where a student is suspended from school, each day of the suspension will be recorded/counted as an
excused absence for attendance purposes. While the suspension is in effect, the student will not be allowed to
participate in extracurricular or school-sponsored activities. Tests or exams may be administered during this
time at an alternate time and location as determined by school personnel.

Lates
A late is defined as arriving at the classroom after the scheduled beginning of instruction. Students are
expected to be punctual for all of their classes. A student who arrives to class late not only loses valuable
instruction time, but also disrupts the learning of others. Students will be allowed into class when they arrive
late and the amount of time they have missed will be documented. Students will not be marked late for class if
they are provided with a note from a staff member. If, as determined by the classroom teacher, excessive
tardiness becomes a concern, a tiered intervention attendance support model will be implemented to assist in
minimizing the risk to a student’s academic success, and/or the academic success of the other students in a
class.

Probationary Status
A student is placed on a probationary period at the Administra�on’s discre�on. This proba�onary period is
typically invoked when student atendance falls below 80%. While under probationary status a student will
lose playing privileges on school teams, may be placed on mandatory supervised spare, will lose the privilege
to submit any assignment a�er the due date and will be automa�cally given a mark of NHI (zero). No provision
will be made for late assignments or missed evalua�ons unless pre-arranged with the teacher. The credit will
not be granted if the student is s�ll under Probationary Status at the end of the semester. A student’s full
privileges may be restored when all condi�ons are met.

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
The Student Services Department is comprised of a Resource Teacher and a Guidance Counsellor who work
with students, parents, educa�onal assistants, teachers and administrators to address the emo�onal,
academic, atendance and behavioural concerns that may impede student success.
Students and parents can contact the resource teacher or guidance counsellor individually. Teachers may also
refer students for aten�on and support.
Students and parents may expect the following services from the Student Services Department:

    all the information they can before making course choices. Students can acquire information from this
    program of studies, guidance counsellors, teachers and parents\guardians.
•   Students should select courses to reflect their aptitudes, interests, abilities, career goals and the high
    school and post-secondary education requirements.
•   The maximum course selections are : 10 credits in grade 9, 8 credits in grades 10-12. Only these selections
    will be granted during registration. Additional course requests will be reviewed by the Administration and
    Student Services Team.
•   Delivery of all courses offered for the 21-22 school year will follow Manitoba Education and Public Health
    Guidelines.

                                                          Collège Pierre-Elliott-Trudeau 2021 - 2022             8
Choosing Your Courses
1. Use the CPET Academic Tracking Form on page 12 as a guide to complete your course selections.
2. The required courses are already listed on the tracking form.
3. Select your courses based on your needs, interests, and abilities.
4. Consider admission requirements for post-secondary education or career path.
5. Please ensure the prerequisite course is completed before moving on to the next level course (ex. English 20F before
   English 30S)
6. Refer to pages 13-19 for course descriptions.

CPET suggested pattern for credits is as follows:
Grade 9: 9 credits               Grade 10: 8 credits              Grade 11: 7 credits              Grade 12: 6 credits

CPET maximum credits then become
Grade 9: 10 credits          Grade 10: 8 credits                  Grade 11: 9 credits              Grade 12: 8 credits

Students must complete a minimum of 4 courses at the 40 level to be eligible for graduation.
Students must complete a minimum of 5 courses designated 40S to be eligible for university entrance.
Students are encouraged to take more than the 30 credits that are required.

Additional Course Requests
Students reques�ng more than the allowable maximum of courses in one academic year may have a valid reason for
doing so. We may accommodate addi�onal course requests with due considera�on given to individual circumstances,
class sizes, staffing, and scheduling limita�ons. Additional Course Request Forms are online and available to be
completed through this link.

Prerequisites, Course Sequence
Certain courses have a definite sequential development that necessitates specific prerequisites. For example: Science
20F is a prerequisite for Biology 30S, Chemistry 30S and Physics 30S. The course description book identifies such
prerequisites. Consider these prerequisites when making course selections. Previous experiences of students and
teachers indicate that these requirements are necessary to ensure success in the course. Exceptions to prerequisites are
occasionally made. High grades as well as the recommendation from subject teachers are the main criteria to be met
before exceptions are made.

Course Delivery
Certain courses may be described as in class delivery for the 2021-2022 school year but may in fact need to be delivered
remotely due to health restrictions. All RETSD schools are prepared to be flexible in the delivery of education curricula in
response to government requirements.

Awards and Post-Secondary Programs
Information about awards, bursaries and scholarships are available in the Student Services office and/or on the school’s
website. Information for external awards can also be researched online. Details for university, college and other post-
secondary options are available in the Student Services office.
