✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss a session over the week. We will be covering a lot each day and missing a session will put you pretty behind the rest of the group. I will withdraw you if you have an unexcused absence. If you really cannot make it use the "excused absence" feature so that the absence is recorded.
