Pre Planned Absences/ Short Term Independent Study

 
Dear Marina Village Families,
 
At Marina Village, we recognize that valuable learning and important life events often happen outside the classroom—whether it’s a unique travel opportunity, a specialized sports competition, a college visit, or necessary time for medical recovery.
 
To help your student stay on track academically during these times, we are pleased to offer Short-Term Independent Study Contracts. This program ensures that students can complete their schoolwork and maintain their attendance records while away for pre-planned events.
 
To help you plan, please keep these helpful guidelines in mind:
  • Duration: Contracts are available for absences lasting 3 to 15 school days total per school year.
  • Advance Notice: To give our staff time to prepare materials, we kindly ask for a 5-school-day notice prior to the absence.
  • Timing: Please note that Independent Study is not available during the first two weeks or the last month of the school year, as these are critical times for transitions and testing.
  • All Homework: Students will hand in all competed homework to the correct teacher on the day they return.

Thank you for your partnership in your child’s education. We appreciate your help in making sure our students stay connected to their learning, even when life takes them away from campus!
 
Warmly,
 
The Marina Village Team
