St. Clement of Rome School endeavors to provide a quality education for your child. At the same time, St. Clement of Rome School does not offer special education and related services, as defined under federal and Louisiana law. The parents and/or legal guardians of students presently enrolled in St. Clement of Rome School acknowledge that this school does not provide special education or related services or facilities. Because St. Clement of Rome School does not offer special education and related services, it is not required to make specific accommodations for your child but only what are called “minor adjustments.” St. Clement of Rome School, its principal, faculty, and staff are only required to make minor adjustments in the education program at St. Clement of Rome School in an attempt to promote the educational development of your child/student, and the nature and extent of such minor adjustments are within the sole discretion of the principal of St. Clement of Rome School. In the event that students need adjustments in the classroom, and with the approval of the school, all adjustments need to be agreed upon in writing by the end of September each year, or within 14 days of a meeting of the school’s Individual Needs Committee (INC). It is expected that students who benefit from minor adjustments are making a diligent effort to do their best work. This includes completing assignments and homework assignments as directed and with sincere effort. Should the principal of St. Clement of Rome School determine in his/her own discretion that the minor adjustments put in place by the school have not resulted in satisfactory student progress and that it is in the best interest of both the school and the child that he/she be educated in another learning environment, then the principal may ask the parents to withdraw their child/student from St. Clement of Rome School. Alternatively, the principal may disenroll the child/student from St. Clement of Rome School and/or not allow the child to re-enroll for the next school year
Students entering PK3 and above must be fully potty trained and self-sufficient in the restroom. Pull-Ups or any type of training pants are not allowed. If it is determined by the school that a child is not fully potty trained, the principal may ask the parents to withdraw their child from St. Clement of Rome School either on a temporary or permanent basis.
