Cherry Hill High School West Academic Responsibility

Academic Responsibility

Students who participate in activities and athletics must always realize that their first responsibility is to their academics; therefore, a meeting, rehearsal, practice, or a game (etc.) is not an excuse for avoiding a makeup test or any other academic responsibility.

It is a student’s responsibility to alert his faculty sponsor or coach of anticipated lateness or absence when taking makeup assessments or attending reviews (etc.)

Participation is no reason to postpone taking a test or handing in a project.
