COLLEGE VISITATION

Students who wish to visit colleges, business schools, and so forth, are limited to three visitations taken during the school day.   Pre-absent slips are required and written authorization from parent or guardian is necessary before the student will be excused.

Normally, college visitations are taken during the senior year.   However, if it is absolutely necessary, juniors may make college visitations.   If taken during the junior year, the visitation will be counted in the total three visitations, thus limiting the number taken during the senior year.

All visitations must be scheduled through the counselor’s office and college visits will not be considered as a school absence.

CORRESPONDENCE STUDY/COLLEGE CLASSES

In general, if Lakeview High School offers a class, a student may not take the same class via a different source and have it placed on his/her high school transcript.   Exceptions must be cleared through the principal’s office.   Students enrolling in college or correspondence courses have the option of including these courses on his/her high school transcript.   If the course is being counted toward the requirement to be a full-time student at Lakeview High School, the course must be included on the transcript.   If it is included, the grade will be calculated in the GPA.   All students intending to have a college class included on their high school transcript shall complete the permission to release records form found in the student handbook.   This must be completed within four weeks of the beginning of the class.
