Absent Work/Late Policy
Absent work will be placed in the absent box with your name on it. It is your responsibility to pick up any absent work before you are absent or after you return. Students will have 1 day per absent day to make up their work. After that time, work will be considered late. If a student involved in sports and school activities is absent from class, he/she is still expected to turn in assignments due on that day.
Late work must have a form attached before it will be accepted. Late work will not be accepted after 1 week of the assignment being due in class. Late work will be docked 10% per day that it is late.
