We purposely make no provision for courf- ship among fhe sfudenfs of our school. I6. Unkind crificism of fhe school, ifs feach- ers or ifs managemenf is much beffer leff undone. The one who offers such crificism does nof have fhe school's inferesf and success af hearf, and if persisfed in will be dealf wifh by fhe faculfy discipline commiffee. I7. For complefe informafion abouf our denominafional sfandards, see fhe Pacific Union Conference Sfudenf Ivlanual. I8. Any regulafion adopfed by The faculfy or fhe board and announced fo fhe sfudenfs will have fhe same force as if prinfed. CREDITS AND SCHOLARSHIP Four academic sfudies consfifufe full work. Sfudenfs will be permiffed fo fake more fhan full work only by permission of fhe faculfy. In order fo confinue in a fiffh sfudy, an aver- age of B or more should be mainfained. ID nof accepfable.l Sfudenfs who come fo us in fhe ninfh grade who have nof complefed all fheir eighfh grade work will nof be permiffed fo regisfer for full ninfh grade work, buf musf make up fhe ele- menfary school subiecfs in which fhey are deficienf, by faculfy direcfion. Sfudenfs who enfer lafe or are absenf for a fime, buf make up back work and receive full credif will be charged full fuifion. Credifs will be issued only fo sfudenfs whose accounfs have been paid in full. Sfudenfs coming from accredifed schools, will receive full credif for work faken, and should fhe course of sfudy differ from fhaf of fhis school, proper subsfifufions will be allowed. Grade cards will be given fo parenfs and sfudenfs each six weeks. Semesfer grades are kepf in permanenf form af fhe school. Absences and Iardiness, whefher excused or unexcused, reduce fhe pupiI's scholasfic sfanding. If a sfudenf for any reason misses I5 per cenf of fhe class recifafions in any class he for- feifs his grade in fhaf class unless by special acfion of fhe faculfy. As recommended by fhe Educafional Board of fhe Pacific Union Conference, Loma Linda Union Academy follows fhe policy of requir- ing four years for graduafion, which means fhaf each pupil is expecfed fo spend fhe full four years in high school. Affendance af summer schools or carrying more fhan a nor- mal program during fhe regular school year will nof usually enable a pupil fo be gradu- afed earlier. All such exfra affendance or exfra program should be regarded as an enrichmenf of fhe pupil's educafional oppor- funifies rafher fhan as a means of leaving school earlier. A sysfem of honor poinfs is used fo defer- mine a sfudenf's general average or sfanding. Honor poinfs for each half unif of credif are given as follows: A equals 3, B equals 2, C equals I, D equals O, F equals -I. The Senior Class will organize soon affer fhe opening of fhe second semesfer. The Junior Class will organize a few weeks fhere- affer. The Sophomore and Freshman classes may be organized shorfly before fhe close of fhe school ferm. The principal lor principal and faculfyl will appoinf fhe respecfive spon- sors, fhis being fhe regular Pacific Union Con- ference policy lor recommendafionl. Any sfudenf who currenfly receives an F, I, or F is aufomafically dropped from all class priv- ileges. and is reinsfafed only upon fhe removal of fhe deficiencies and a passing grade main- fained. To ioin fhe sophomore class, a sfudenf musf have his eighfh grade diploma: he musf have eighf unifs including subiecfs for which he is regisfered during his sophomore year.
