Students that missed will need to make up their Final Exams and ALL INCOMPLETE must be enter in the gradebook for a grade change by Friday, January 8. Please make arrangements with the students to get these completed. There are several that have many exams to make up so we might have to pull from electives and labs to complete the exams. Be flexible and willing to work with these students. (remember it is typically not the student's fault that they missed but a parent decision).
