Gradebook Announcements:
I enter grades when I can. This typically consists of on-time work...entered all at once. This is done to manage my time more effectively. Late work does not take priority over on-time work. Missing assignments will be marked as a ZERO and it will remain that way until late work CAN be taken care of. Late work might not be changed in the grade book until the end of the quarter. Assignments turned in to Google classroom records the time and date when assignments are turned in. The expectation for honors and AP students is that assignments will be turned in by the due date set on google classroom or posted in-person. When late work is considered, the student must send an email listing assignments to be re-evaluated before the end of the quarter. jbaltz@greenvilleschools.us If you have any questions, email me.
Gifts (Not necessary but appreciated):
If you insist, I love Starbucks Gift Cards & Amazon Gift Cards.
Here's what I do with them: I buy bags of coffee from Starbucks stores and brew coffee in my classroom. I can't function without drinking coffee. With Amazon Gift Cards I add them to my account and purchase bigger school supply items (technology is expensive) that I can't get with school funds.
Tutoring:
I have a toddler at home and it makes things complicated to find time to meet for one-on-one. I would like to try my hardest to make myself available for one-on-one help. In order to meet with students for one-on-one help, I need to know at least 2 days in advance to possibly schedule a time to work together. I typically cannot meet after school in the building. It is possible that I can meet remotely from home.
