Late daily work and folders will be accepted but full credit will not be given. The student's grade for that assignment will be deducted 10 points for every day the assignment is late.

*At the end of each six weeks period, a cumulative folder (portfolio) will be graded. You are expected to keep all handouts, assignments, and projects throughout the year in a neat and organized fashion.

**Projects will not be assigned every six weeks.

CHEATING--Students will not cheat or copy the work of another student. If a student cheats, he/she will receive a zero for the assignment grade and a minimum of one day of ISS will be given. Those who allow other students to cheat or copy their work could receive the same punishment.
