College Visits
Nothing helps students and families more in the college search process than making an official college visit to schools of interest. Many college visits can take place on non-BCHS school days, but there are times when it is necessary to take a day off of school.
One senior college visit day is scheduled for the PSAT/PLAN testing day, and a second day may be taken according to the following guidelines. (Juniors are permitted two visit days -- one in the fall semester, one in the spring semester).
-
Students must be in good standing with a satisfactory attendance record
-
Parents need to call the school attendance line in the morning of the visit and state that your student will be on a visit that day
-
A parent must accompany a student or a small group of students on any college visit where a day off from school is taken
-
After the visit is completed, students must bring back to the attendance office proof from the college that they attended an official college visit on the day of the absence in order for that absence to be excused
