ATTENDANCE
Regular school attendance is a major component of academic success. Any absence from
class is therefore detrimental to the learning process. The attendance policy is intended
to encourage full attendance by students and limit the level of absences, tardiness, and
early departures (ATEDs) from school. Excused ATEDs are defined as absences, tardiness,
and early departures from class or school due to personal illness, death in the immediate
family, approved family emergency, religious observance, required court appearances,
medical appointments, approved college visits, and approved school activities. All other
ATEDs are considered unexcused absences. It is the parent’s responsibility to notify the
school office within 24 hours of the reason for the ATED and to provide a written excuse
upon the student’s return to school. If after three school days the school has not been
notified to the contrary, the absence will be considered unexcused.

A student who has more than twelve (12) absences in a semester course, or twenty-four
(24) absences in a full year course, will receive no credit for that course. Being late to class
three (3) times is the equivalent of one (1) absence. Students with too many absences may
appeal the loss of credit to the building principal.
A copy of the Board Policy-5502 “Student Attendance” is available in each school and at
the District website, http:///www.sewanhaka.k12.ny.us.
COMMUNITY USE OF SCHOOL FACILITIES
Non-profit, non-sectarian organizations, whose membership is primarily made up of
district residents, may have the use of school facilities under appropriate circumstances.
Applications and inquiries should be made to the Building Principal or the District Director
of Athletics at 488-9858.
LEAVING THE SCHOOL BUILDING
Students may not leave the school grounds for any reason without the written permission of
the Principal or Assistant Principal. A note from the parent or guardian must be presented
before consideration will be given to any request for early dismissal.
LOCKERS
Each student is assigned a locker at the beginning of the school year, and is required to
purchase a lock. Students have access to their lockers before school, during passing time
between classes and at the end of the school day. Students are reminded to secure their
lockers at all times and never to reveal their combinations to anyone. Lockers remain under
the control of the administrators and custodial staff of the building and are subject to
periodic inspection at any time.
RESIDENCY HOTLINE
A new residency hotline has been created. District residents who believe that non-resident
students are in attendance at one of our District schools may call a confidential telephone
line to report this information: 516-488-9804.

SPECIAL PROGRAMS
PROGRAMS FOR ACHIEVEMENT
The Sewanhaka Central High School District
provides unique opportunities for challenging,
encouraging and supporting students with
special skills, competencies, and talents. Special
programs, such as READ 180, enrichment and
advanced courses, Advanced Placement courses,
and the Talented and Gifted program enable
students to develop their critical thinking skills
and creativity. Students are encouraged to become
leaders, provide community service and immerse
themselves in our academic, extracurricular and
athletic programs.
SOCIAL WORKER SERVICES
A professional is assigned to each building in
order to coordinate school and home problems
which affect the progress and behavior of the
student. The social worker also maintains
communication with appropriate community and
governmental agencies.

Speech therapists are employed by the District
to identify, assess and remedy certain speech
difficulties or defects. Students in need of this
service may be scheduled to meet with the therapist
on a regular basis.
HEALTH SERVICES
All students entering grades 7 and 10 are
required by law to submit written proof

A full-time nurse is assigned to each building
to provide emergency care, counseling and
maintenance of health records. Hearing and vision
tests are performed periodically.

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
SCHOOL COUNSELING
Counseling and academic advisement
services are provided to all students.
School counselors assist students in
assessing their abilities, aptitudes,
interests and educational needs.
Counseling services include program
planning,
academic
monitoring,
evaluation of school progress, and
college and career exploration and
preparation. Individual conferences
may be requested by both students
and parents. Counselors will schedule
individual annual reviews with each
student to discuss academic progress,
graduation requirements, and post
high school plans. Parents are invited
and encouraged to attend.
CAREER & COUNSELING CENTERS
Each counseling office provides
literature and computer data on
hundreds of colleges and careers.
Students can also avail themselves
to the Naviance and Guidance Direct
resources available on-line with
student log-ins. Please make it a point
to see your counselor and familiarize
yourself with these resources.
STUDENT DRIVERS
Priority is extended to the school staff
to park their cars in the school parking
lots. Should there be sufficient space
remaining, some schools may permit
student parking. All cars must be
registered with the main office.
Further information may be obtained
by contacting the Main Office of the
school building.
REPORT CARDS
Report cards will be distributed to
students approximately one week after
the close of each of the four marking
periods.
PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES
The
District
employs
certified
psychologists to identify, evaluate
and counsel students who may have
learning problems or other related
problems that interfere with the
educational process. Psychologists
can administer individual clinical
tests. Outside referrals are made
when deemed necessary. Findings
and recommendations are shared with
parents. The schools do not provide
on-going therapeutic services.
PARENT CONFERENCES FINDING ANSWERS
Parents who have questions about
their child’s classwork or progress in
a specific course, should contact the
subject area teacher. Conferences
will be arranged when necessary or
requested.
Questions about a student’s overall
progress or about course selections
of study should be addressed to the
guidance counselor.
If a parent’s concern is of a more general
nature and involves the educational
program or activities of a school, the
building principal should be contacted
directly.
SMOKING
Students are prohibited from smoking
on the school grounds or on school
buses. Disciplinary action will be
taken against those who violate this
regulation.
SCHOOL LUNCHES & BREAKFAST
The school lunch program is a
selfsustaining
program
serving
wellbalanced and nutritious food at
a minimum cost as specified by the
National School Lunch Act. The cost of
a full type “A” lunch is $2.30 and the
cost of a type “A” breakfast is $1.75.
Food preparation and school lunch
management are under the supervision
of experienced dietitians. Students
may bring lunch from home and buy
beverages and dessert.
Students who forget lunch may
“charge” the cost of up to five (5) meals
to be paid back at a later date subject
to the terms established in Board Policy
5145A. A copy of the Board Policy is
available on the District website.
STUDENT TRANSPORTATION (CONT.)
Transportation of children to private
and parochial schools outside the
district is provided up to a maximum
of 15 miles. Transportation for children
with disabilities is mandated by State
Law up to 50 miles. Requests for
transportation to private and parochial
schools for 2017-2018 are due by
April 1, 2017.
AHERA Compliance Activities
BULLYING/DASA
Bullying of any type is prohibited in
the Sewanhaka Central High School
District. Please check district website
for names of Dignity Act Coordinators
as well as complete Board Policy.
All incidents should be reported
to a school administrator or school
counselor.
STUDENT TRANSPORTATION
Students in grades 7-12 who live in the
Sewanhaka Central High School District
and attend a public or nonpublic school
are eligible for bus transportation if
their homes are 1-1/2 miles or more
from the school.
Each student who is eligible for
transportation will be issued a bus
pass and must carry it at all times. Lost
passes will be replaced at a cost of
$5.00 per pass.
In accordance with 40 CFR
§763.84(c), regard this statement
as the district’s annual notification
to all workers, students and/
or their legal guardian that the
district continues to maintain its
Asbestos Management Plan (AMP)
which documents all performed
or planned asbestos related
inspections, response actions, and
post-response action activities,
including periodic re-inspection
and surveillance activities, within
the school district. A copy of this
AMP is available for your review
and/or inspection at the district’s
facilities office and within the main
office of each school building.
If you have any questions, please
contact Mathew Castelluzzo at
(516)488-9827 to arrange a meeting
to discuss this in further detail.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
REGISTRATION OF STUDENTS NEW TO THE DISTRICT
The District requires that students entering our schools submit documentation to validate their
residency in the Sewanhaka Central High School District. Registration forms and procedures are
available on the District website. The District’s Homeless Liaison is Ms. Regina Agrusa, Assistant
Superintendent for PPS and Special Education Services (488-9851). This process pertains to all
students who have moved into this school district from other areas, as well as incoming 7th grade
students. Also included are resident students who are transferring from a private or parochial school.
A questionnaire regarding residency is required and responses will be checked against census data,
as well as enrollment records to determine their validity. If it is found that a student is fraudulently
enrolled, he or she will be withdrawn from school and tuition charges may be assessed to the parent
and criminal charges may also be filed.
SCHOOL CODE OF CONDUCT
As required by the Regulations of the New York State Commissioner of Education, the Board of
Education in consultation with parents, students and professional staff, developed a code for school
conduct and discipline. The plain language Summary of the Code is distributed to all students and
reviewed at the beginning of each school year. Copies of the complete code are available in each school
as well as posted on district website.
INTERNET & INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY USE POLICY
The purpose of establishing student use of the Internet and the Sewanhaka network is to provide
students access to information resources for instructional purposes. The District regards this access
as a privilege, not a right. Some of the information on the Internet may not be appropriate for student
use. Therefore, it is essential for each user to recognize his/her responsibility in having access to vast
services, sites, systems and people. In addition, users must respect all intellectual and property rights
and laws. The user is ultimately responsible for his/her actions in accessing Internet resources. Failure
to comply with the District’s Internet Guidelines may result in disciplinary or legal action as well as
suspension and/or revocation of access privileges. Parents and students must sign an Internet and
Instructional Technology Use Policy Consent and Waiver Form prior to student access of the Internet
in school.
NEW YORK STATE SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY
Information about the New York State Sex Offender Registration Act and public access to the
Subdirectory of High Risk Sex Offenders is available at www.criminaljustice.state.ny.us. This site also
contains valuable information for parents on protecting your child.
DISTRICT HOMEWORK POLICY
The long-standing tradition in education of assigning homework has been given additional support
in recent studies which identify characteristics of effective schools. Research clearly demonstrates
that time spent on homework is positively related to achievement. Through homework, classroom
instruction is reinforced, high expectations are supported, students are motivated toward selfdirection
and the relationship of school and home in the learning process is strengthened. Homework is an
important part of every student’s instructional program and is part of the student’s final grade. Copies
of this policy are available at each school.
VANDALISM
Under a New York State Law passed in l977, parents will have to pay for any vandalism of public
property. Students are also subject to suspension for this type of unacceptable behavior.
PESTICIDE APPLICATION
Effective July 1, 2001 all public and non-public elementary and secondary school districts are required
under New York State Law Section 409-H to provide written notification to all parents and staff
who wish to receive 48 hour written notice of certain pesticide applications. Please advise building
administrators should you wish to receive notice.
VISITORS
All visitors must report to the Main Office of the school for a Visitor’s Pass. Passes are only given for
valid school business.
WORKING PAPERS
Working papers are required by law for students under the age of 18 who seek paid employment. Forms
for this purpose are available in the Health Office. They must be signed by a parent, and the student
must have medical clearance. A birth certificate, baptismal certificate or passport is also required as
proof of age.
EQUAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY
Each student will have equal educational opportunities and will not be excluded from participating
in or having access to any course offerings, school services or activities on the basis of race, color,
creed, sex, national origin, religion, age, marital status or disability. Anyone with a complaint
concerning sex discrimination should contact the District’s Title IX Compliance Officer,
Regina Agrusa, Assistant Superintendent for Pupil Personnel and Special Education Services,
488-9851. Complaints concerning discrimination on the basis of disability should be directed
to Regina Agrusa at 488-9851. All other complaints should be made to the Building Principal or
(if appropriate) to the Superintendent of Schools.
SECTION 504
Students with disabilities, but not classified by the committee on Special Education, are entitled to a
504 committee meeting to determine necessary accommodations to ensure access to all public school
programs and activities. Requests for a 504 committee meeting should be submitted to the building
principal. Parents or community members who believe that they have been subjected to discriminatory
treatment on basis of a disability or that the district schools, programs, or services are not fully
accessible should contact Regina Agrusa, Section 504/ADA Coordinator (488-9851).
SENIOR CITIZENS
Free passes to athletic and cultural events in the Sewanhaka Central High School District are available
to all senior citizens residing within the District. This is just one of many services senior citizens may
learn about by writing to the Superintendent of Schools, Sewanhaka Central High School District,
77 Landau Avenue, Floral Park, N.Y. 11001. The letter should include the full name, address, date of
birth and telephone number of the person requesting the information.
DISTRICT CRISIS PLAN
As part of New York State regulations, the Sewanhaka Central High School District has developed
a plan which better prepares us for any crisis. Included in this plan are various types of drills, such
as early dismissal (or evacuation). In the case of early dismissal, at least once each year, parents
will be notified in writing that their child will be dismissed approximately fifteen (15) minutes prior
to the regular dismissal time. Pursuant to recent legislation, New York State Project SAVE - Safe
Schools Against Violence in Education, has been submitted and approved by the Board of Education.
This comprehensive safety plan has been developed in accordance to recommended guidelines.
There is a school building Emergency Response Plan in place and filed with the appropriate education
and emergency departments. Copies of these plans are available in each school. If parents have
any questions regarding these plans they should contact the office of the Superintendent at
488-9800 ext. 9873.
EMERGENCY SCHOOL CLOSINGS OR DELAYED OPENINGS
Information can be found at http://www.sewanhaka.k12.ny.us/
In addition, school closings or delayed openings (when appropriate, the start of school may be delayed
2 hours instead of closing) due to inclement weather will be
announced on the following radio and television stations:
Cablevision News 12, WBLI (106.1 FM), WBAB (102.3 FM), WCBS (880 AM), WINS (1010 AM), CBS2 HD,
WHLI (1100 AM), WKJY (98.3 FM) and Verizon FIOS1
The official radio announcement for closings will be:
“The five high schools of the Sewanhaka Central High School District will be closed today.”
The above announcement is the only official statement for the closing of our schools.
Do not confuse this with local elementary school district announcements coming from Elmont,
Floral Park, Franklin Square and New Hyde Park.
