Late / Incomplete Work
Absentee Policy
My expectation is that ALL assignments be completed to a level of proficiency (70% or higher) and turned in on time. If an assignment is turned in but proficiency is not demonstrated, the assignment will be returned to the student and the work must be completed until proficiency is achieved. The assignment will not receive a grade until proficiency is earned.
Each day an assignment is late students receive 10 points off per district policy.
Also… #nonamenograde
YES, WE DID SOMETHING IMPORTANT WHILE YOU WERE ABSENT.
It is the student’s responsibility to check the class journal (on my website), with their absent buddy and on Schoology to find any assignments missed.
A student will receive a zero for missed assignments until it has been made up.
A student should plan to attend the next available tutorial day to ask questions and complete the missing work.
Technology
Technology will be used in class during the school year. Smart Phones, iPads, laptops and school computer labs will be used for educational purposes using apps/programs such as KAHOOT, schoology, puzzle ed and websites deemed appropriate by the teacher. Listening to music with headphones during independent work only, is a privilege allowed by the teacher. Students may NOT use the schools wifi to stream music, a play list must be downloaded to the device and is the parents responsibility to monitor and censor the students music. Students are expected to abide by all school and district digital safety rules and guidelines. Failure to do so will result in said student loss privileges or banned from technology and/or temporary confiscation of personal device.
NO SOCIAL MEDIA WILL BE USED IN CLASS
