Thank you for requesting
an Independent Study
for your child’s absence.
Independent Study allows an opportunity for a student to stay up-to-date with instruction during a planned absence. This opportunity is available for unavoidable circumstances, but it does not replace the learning experience derived from attendance at school. The maximum amount of independent days allowed for the school year is 34 days.
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO COMPLETE ALL 5 STEPS BELOW for Independent Study.
If you have any questions, or if you need help printing documents, please contact:
-
Tess Trillo, FFX Office Manager: maritess.trillo@larchmontcharter.org
For questions about individual assignments, please email your child's teacher directly.
Thank you!
