CLASSROOM HOMEWORK POLICY

Please check assignment notebooks each night for assignments. Students are given time at the end of each period to make sure they have all homework recorded properly. In most cases, they will be given time in class to at least start assignments.

Homework is due at the beginning of the day during the first period I meet with them. Every student is given 3 late passes to use at their discretion throughout the quarter. This allows them to turn in one completed assignment, one day late, for full credit. Assignments turned in one day late without a late pass will receive 50% credit.

When students are absent, it is their responsibility to find out which assignments they missed. Parents are always welcome to call the office to request homework be sent to the office to pick up at the end of the school day. Students are allowed as many days as missed to make up their work.
