Century’s
Attendance policy can be found in the student handbook.
Choir Classes are participation classes; therefore, full
participation credit cannot be awarded when a student is
absent . Assignments and tests can be made-up in accordance
with Century policy. Concert attendance is mandatory. It is
the student’s responsibility to arrange for makeup.
Choirs will perform at least one concert per trimester. The
majority of class time is spent on the preparation for
concerts. Therefore, all concerts must be treated as a
trimester final and will be a substantial part of the
student’s grade. Participation in these concerts is
required.
