ATTENDANCE:
Attendance is a necessity! Regular attendance at classes is required. Absences equal to 20% of the scheduled instructional time for a course will be defined as unsatisfactory progress unless the instructor has made other arrangements for the individual student to complete the course objectives. Any instruction missed and not made up will necessarily affect the grade of the student, regardless of the reason for the absence.

GRADING:
Two skill tests and one written test will be given during the term. Each skill test will count for 1/3 of your grade and the written test will count for 1/3 of your grade. Each student must bowl a certain number of games during the semester. (Fee $1.80 per game.) Students can only make up a total of 2 classes during the semester if they miss a class for a legitimate reason, and those games must be made up within one week of missing the class.
