CLASS ATTENDANCE

The number of Adeo classes aligns with the time requirements set by the Archdiocese of New York.

• Students should make every effort to attend each class;

• If a student is sick or has a serious conflict, the parent should notify the teacher and the Adeo Office as soon as possible; and

• The missed class should be rescheduled in collaboration with the teacher.

If there are excessive absences, Adeo may determine that the grade should be repeated as the Archdiocese requires Adeo to submit a class attendance form for each child.

​

RESPECT HOST HOMES AND TEACHERS 

• Respect rules of the host family: We ask that students and parents be courteous (e.g., taking off shoes if required, staying in the space designated for class, eating snack in a tidy manner and before class).

• Punctuality: Most of our classes are hosted in homes of volunteer parents. It is essential that students are not dropped off more than ten minutes before and not picked up later than ten minutes after the scheduled class time. We ask that students and caregivers be courteous and respectful of pick-up and drop-off times. Adeo and the host family cannot guarantee supervision outside the parameters of the set class time.
