INDEPENDENT STUDY FOR EXTENDED ABSENCE
The Placentia-Yorba
Linda Unified School District Board of Education recognizes that circumstances
occur which necessitate prolonged student absences from school. In such instances
the parents may apply for an independent study arrangement, developed in
accordance with legal requirements as provided for in the Education Code. This
arrangement shall serve as a temporary alternative to regular classroom
instruction.
Independent Study
refers to a formal independent learning arrangement in which a written
agreement exists between a student, the student's parent/guardian, the
teacher(s), and the designated supervisor. All instruction using independent
study as a modality shall be consistent with the district's prescribed
curriculum and shall be designed to meet the needs of the participating
student.
