If failing grades continue in the next grading period then a parent\/student conference will be held with Mrs. Fuller and the student will be placed on probation. A contract will be put into place and if the student violates any of the stipulations of the contract, then magnet status will be terminated and the student will need to go to their home school of record at the end of the next 9 week grading period! If students are placed on probation, it is for the remainder of the student\u2019s time as a student at Northside High School. Magnet students are not allowed to have failing final grades (end of year) in ANY class.\u00a0 This will result in an automatic removal from the program.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><u>What if I am a dual enrolled student and I fail a class?<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Even though you are participating in dual enrollment you are still required to follow the same expectations regarding grades for your classes at Northside.\u00a0 If you fail a college class, which is only a semester class, then you will violate your student\/parent responsibly contract and you will lose your magnet status. If so, then you will need to return to your home school of record either in January (for a fall semester class) or in August for the start of the school year (after a spring or summer class)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><u>BEHAVIOR and ATTENDANCE:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I receive notices from Mr. Laney\u2019s office regarding any behavior or attendance issues.\u00a0 Depending on the severity a student\/parent conference could be requested.
