Study Hall and Homeroom Attendance

Study Hall and Homeroom are required classes. Students must use their IDs to swipe into study halls and they must go to their study hall location as assigned.

Locations where students may swipe in:

  • Study hall location indicated on the student’s schedule for that day (e.g., South Lobby, Oakton Lobby, Aud Bal)
  • Literacy Center
  • Library (Information Resource Center)
  • College Resource Center: for exploring post-secondary education options
  • Weight Room: for in-season varsity athletes only

Contact your dean if you have additional questions.

Off Campus Privileges

Students with junior or senior status may apply for off-campus privileges during their lunch period only. Interested students must have a parent or guardian come to the front security desk in person and fill out an application. Applications are reviewed by the student's dean, with attendance, behavior, and grades being taken into account. Students will be notified of a decision after a six week waiting period.
