10th & 11th GRADE CONFIRMATION PROGRAM POLICY
All Class Meetings listed below will be held in the St. Genevieve Family Center from 4:15 – 5:45 p.m., followed by Mass at 6:00 p.m. in Church. Students will dismiss from in front of the Family Center. If your child will be driving, you must check the box on the registration form saying that your child may leave without a parent to pick him/her up. All other students must have a parent pick them up in carline in front of the Family Center after Mass. Any child not going to Mass must be picked up by a parent between 5:45 – 5:55 p.m. from the Family Center.
The absence and make-up policy is as follows: Students may only have 1-3 excused (and made-up) absences per school year. Excused absences must be submitted in writing by the student him or herself to the Director of Formation Ministries. If the request is made after the reason for the absence has occurred, the letter must be supported by a note from either (depending on the reason) their doctor, the school principal/dean of students or discipline, coordinator of the event the student must attend, or the parent. Any excuses beyond three must be explicitly approved by the student's pastor (Fr. Eric or Fr. JD). The student (not the parent) will have to follow the above policy requirements, but submit it to their pastor instead of the Director of Formation. A student may have no more than six absences during the school year. 10th graders with more than 6 excused/3 unexcused absences will automatically be removed from the program. 11th graders with more than six excused/ 3 unexcused absences will have to make a formal appeal to the Bishop to be allowed to Confirm. Make-up Sessions: Make-up sessions will be assigned on a case by case basis. This make-up session must be completed before the next Confirmation class as the info will build on what they learned the previous week. If an absence is not excused, students will not be allowed to participate in the make-up session.
(NOTE: 6:00 p.m. Mass attendance is not required if your family goes to Mass at a different time. Families are invited to come to 6:00 p.m. Mass with their child for both Class Meeting Nights and C2C Nights.)
