The principal will then respond inwriting, either approving or denying the request.The principal's response will include either the reason for denial or any condition(s) for the work-release time.
4. The student shall be limited to no more than two (2) hours of work-release time per day.
5. The high school principal shall have the authority to modify or revoke a student's work-release time if the student does not meet or abide by theterms of this or other school board policies and/or the conditions of his/her work-release time.
