STUDENT AFFAIRS NEWS
Freshman students received permission slips this week for the Freshman retreat on Dec 4th-6th. Each freshman will attend the retreat on only one of the days with their religion class. Our Freshman retreat will focus on the history of CCHS and the charism of Mercy, instilled by the Sisters of Mercy who founded the school. We will travel back to the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Camden, the location of the original CCHS building and engage in works of service for Cathedral Kitchen and Joseph's House during the day. Seniors in our Christian ministry class will also be facilitating sessions throughout the day. We ask for your prayers for this retreat. Permission slips and a $2 busing fee were due back to Religion class November 9th. We also will be asking for donation of supplies for some of our service projects via the following SignUp Genius link:
Students will wear their uniforms and will need to bring a packed lunch on the day of their retreat.
We greatly appreciate your prayers and support.
The freshman meeting on Monday was an overview of the Freshman Retreat. The presentation can be found on the Freshman Transition page of the CCHS website:
Campus Ministry
Service hours for the first semester are coming due on Dec 10th. At that time students will need to have turned in the following number of hours.
9th grade- 4 hours
10th grade- 6 hours
11th grade- 8 hours
12th grade- 10 hours
As a reminder Christian service is an annual school requirement and students will not be eligible to participate fully in other extracurricular activities and events if they have not fulfilled their service obligations.
Upcoming Winter Sport Catholic Athletes for Christ Retreat
The Catholic Athletes for Christ retreat is for all athletes on a winter athletic team. It will be held on Sunday, December 9, 2018 at Camden Catholic H.S. from 9am to 1pm. This retreat is mandatory for all students on a team for the winter season even it they already have attended another retreat. Retreat will include Mass for their Sunday obligation. Students should enter the school in the back by the dining hall. They are encouraged to bring a snack to share with their teammates. We ask for your prayers for the success of this retreat.
Attendance- Excessive Absence Policy
Because regular attendance is so important, students whose unexcused absences are excessive will receive failing grades in each of his/her courses for the current semester. A student who is absent ten (10) days in one semester without providing acceptable verification of those days will receive a grade of 65 for each course. Each additional absence will result in a further deduction of 5 points for the semester.
A student who is absent ten (10) days in one semester and has provided acceptable verification of those days will be permitted to make up missed time and missed work. The student and parent/guardian will meet with the Vice Principal of Academic Affairs to review missed work, and establish a schedule for making up missed time after school or on designated days in the school calendar. Two hours will be required for each absence beyond day 10. Examples of acceptable verification of absence are doctor's note for illness, court documents for legal appointments, funeral card or obituary for bereavement days, official college notes for college visits, and school-sanctioned activities. Students may forfeit the privilege of participation in school-sanctioned activities that would result in missed classes due to excessive absence (excused or unexcused). (Student Handbook Page 24-25)
Just as a reminder, whether the absence is excused or not, excessive absence is defined as 10 days in a semester. The policy for excused absence is not meant to be punitive but rather supportive to a student academically. We encourage you to reach out to the Vice Principal of Academic Affairs, Ms. Wilkinson if your child needs assistance making up missed coursework due to missing school.
