Rosenmeler announced changes In his controversial policy on Illegal day night, but It was hard to tell If the changes would satisfy 'parents and siuaenu. Because' of what was tailed a mlxup, the school board changed Its meeting place.

Rosenmeler last Tuesday1, promised students who walked out of class to protest falling grades for two Illegal absences that he would tnake the changes. The changes Would excuse some high school students who received the falling grades If they can produce signed notes by their parents by Friday. Rosenmeler, in a written statement to high school students their parents and to school board members, said that after the notes are received, the falling grade 50 that was assigned to 32 students' will be changed to reflect the actual grades earned. "It should be emphasized' that while notes are apparently not considered important to a number of parents and students, they' are required documents that the school district is, by law, required to obtain," said Rosenmeler. In addition, the two day limitation for bringing in notes after an absence will be eliminated, he said.

Instead, the school's attendance office will publish at regular intervals a list of students who have absences not verified by notes, said Rosenmeler, Only about 30 persons attended the meeting, but many were teachers who were recently granted tenure or teachers who were scheduled to give progress reports. A possible reason for the lack of attendance was some confusion over the meeting's venue. The agenda listed the venue as the Sargent School, the school board's regular meeting place, but the meeting was held at the Rombout Junior High School where teachers of that school were scheduled to give a progress report. School Board President Jack O'Leary apologized for the mlxup. In his written statement.

Superintendent Rosenmeler said he was willing to make concessions to those students with illegal absences that were sanctioned by their parents such as religious holidays or family vacations. Those students may have their grades restored after producing a note by the Friday deadline and serving two days of central detention for each parent sanctioned Illegal absence, said Rosenmeler. However, no concessions would be made for students who were guilty of "skipping school" and "cutting classes." "My decision In regard to students who have verified truancies or verified cuts from class exceeding the limit of two is to retain their falling grades of 50 in any or all subjects applicable," said Rosenmeler. Some community residents and teachers had expressed their opposition to the superintendent's Illegal absence policy at two previous meetings. Tuesday'swalkout included about 50 high school students.

At the last two confrontations, Rosenmeler had promised protesters some modifications of the policy and a decision by Monday night's meeting. However, his statement was prepared well in advance of Monday and there were no students nor parents who were affected by the policy at the meeting. Ilia SSat aescxax7 ANNKRF selby.
