A student who accumulates more than 6 unexcused absences in a semester will fail all ½ year credited courses or any class and will receive an attendance failure and an “AF” (attendance failure) on the report card.

Volunteer speakers from the Abington community will spend the morning engaging with students about their careers.

Students should respond to the survey in their school email       to participate. Thanks in advance to the Abington community for their generosity! For specific questions, please contact Ms. Clifford at andreaclifford@abingtonps.org.
