Homework
There will not be homework every day and when there is homework it will be due the class after the next class.
Quizzes
There will be one each week. I might announce their date or they might be random. I stress that every student be prepared for a pop quiz at all times. They will be on the material covered the week before.
Make Ups and Retakes
You can make up a missed assignment by turning it in the next class period with a grade deduction of a letter grade. If you have a valid excuse for why the work is late the grade deduction can be negotiated. You can also resubmit homework within a week to regain half of the lost credit. If you miss a quiz or test, it can be made ups and retakes are after school during detention hours. This is by appointment, meaning all students must warn me before staying after school. If staying after school is not an option, please let me know and we can work it out.
Attendance
If a student misses more than 10 days of instruction the highest grade that student can receive, without making up days after school, will be a 69% (F).
