Students must take responsibility for their own work and learning!
- If students miss a class they must come and see me the next school day in order to make up missed work.
- If students miss a test/assignment they must come with a note and be prepared to complete this on the first day back at school. A completed late form must also be attached.
- If students are aware that they will miss work due to absence they must make arrangements with me prior to that day as to when it will be completed.
- Homework may be checked. If it is incomplete/absent a mark of zero will be assigned. No marks will be given for late homework.
- 25% will be lost each school calendar day on late assignments.
