Study hall

Study halls exist for studying (reviewing one’s agenda, planning and organizing, completing assignments, preparing for tests, doing research). Study hall supervisors may require all students to remain in the study hall room for quiet study for a designated period of time before allowing them to leave.

  • Once assignments and planning are completed, students may use study hall time to:
    • Read quietly
    • Take care of other school business (such as an appointment with the guidance counselor or registrar)
  • Study hall guidelines:
    • Students are expected to study. This means they may not be playing games or engaging in any other activities not directly connected to their education.
    • Study hall teachers will be checking for missing assignments, and additional restrictions will be placed on students who are missing an assignment in any class.
    • The study hall teacher may provide a pass (in the student’s Agenda) for students whose assignment requires them to work in the library, LRC, or computer lab.
    • Music students may take a music lesson or practice on a regular basis during their study hall time.
    • Arrangements should be made with the music department coordinator (Scott Ponzani, sponzani@caj.or.jp) who will provide names to the divisional principal to approve the absence from study hall.
