ANNOUNCEMENT
Subject / Punishing Students
In view of the following students leaving the classroom without permission on Thursday, 13 / 5 / 71,
The school administration decided, based on the request of the specialized teacher, Mr. Nasser Al-Diwani, to deduct five marks from
the conduct average of each of:
1- Eddy Rubin Ezra Qashqoush
2- Hayyim Elias Ibrahim Danous
3- Saleh Shaul Baroukh Nissan
4- Qutayba Abdul Sattar Tawfiq Al-Dallal
And they are from the Fourth General Class
It also decided to deduct ten marks from the conduct average of the student Violet Hayawi Ezra Al-Sarraf, who is
from the Fourth Preparatory Commercial Class, for the same reason and because she is the class monitor.
Be it known that five marks had previously been deducted from the conduct average of the student Hayyim Elias Ibrahim
Danous on 26 / 10 / 1970, and thus the total number of marks deducted from his conduct average
has reached ten marks.
Also, ten marks had previously been deducted from the conduct average of the student Qutayba Abdul Sattar Tawfiq Al-Dallal on
27 / 10 / 1970, and another ten marks were also deducted from his conduct average on 15 / 4 / 71,
and thus the total number of marks deducted from his conduct average has reached twenty-five marks.
A student is considered to have failed in their class if 51% or more is deducted from their conduct marks.
