Progress Reports
Each student will receive a grade report after every major test. Usually a progress report is posted every 2 weeks for the student. However, every student has a SKYWARD account that you and your student can use to look at grades anytime.

9. Make-up Work and Late Work Late work is unacceptable
Make-up Work and Late Work Late work is unacceptable. All work missed due to absences will be made up on the student’s time or during tutoring. Tests or quizzes must be made up within 3 days of your return. I encourage you to get several classmates’ phone numbers so that you can work with them on the homework. Failure to complete homework is unacceptable and will affect your grade. Remember, late work will incur a 30 point deduction. After three days, the student will receive a zero.
