Notes:
¨ Make attendance a priority! Regardless of the reason for an absence (sickness, extra-curricular activities, religion, field trips, etc.), you are accountable for the material covered and the work assigned.
If answers are available, please check your work before the next class, and ask for help when needed.
¨ Class time should be used to work on current assignments. Please see me during tutorials for help with previous assignments.
¨ You will be given ample notice of upcoming tests. Absence prior to a test does not excuse you from taking the test at the scheduled time.
¨ Make-up or retake tests may may be taken before school, after school, or during study hall. According to school policy, test retakes will be assigned a grade no higher than 70%.
¨ Late assignments will not receive full credit.
¨ Please feel free to talk to me about anything that is interfering with your learning.
