Late Work Policy I do accepts late assignments up until the last day of the grading period, but for each day late 10% will be deducted Teacher will provide scholars with an opportunity to demonstrate “mastery” by completing “test corrections.” Failing grades can be improved in this manner up to a 77/C maximum. Each graded formal assessment should be signed by a parent/guardian and returned to class for a grade. ***It is the responsibility of the student to request make-up work***

Absence & Tardiness Policy You are expected to be in class every day prepared before the bell rings. If you are absent and the absence is excused you will receive time equal to the amount of time missed to make up work. In other words for every day missed, one day is given to make up work. Retakes for missed tests and quizzes must be scheduled within one week of the quiz or test.
