Homework
There is little homework other than studying for quizzes.
Absences
If a student is absent, a list of missed assignments is posted on the board at all times. Assignments will be kept in a central location available to students at all times. It is the student's responsibility to check to see what work is missing and make arrangements for making it up. Students have five (5) days to make up work after an absence per Montgomery County Policy.
Late Work
I will accept late work up to three (3) days after the due date--or up to three (3) days after the five (5) excused days set forth by Montgomery County Policy for absences. Each late day will reduce the grade by one letter. After three (3) days, the final grade will become a zero.
