Grading
Absences
Yes, we did something important while you were absent! It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to check with me to get what you missed and to turn in any work that was picked up.
You have ONE DAY for each day you were absent to make up missed classwork or homework. After that day, any missing assignments will be accepted with a late penalty.
You will need to make arrangements to stay after school to make up any test or lab within one week of return to school.
Any assignment will be entered as an F until it is turned in.
