I am not able to print from my computer at home at it's late at night, now what?
  • You have a few options:
    1. save it to a flash drive (if you plan ahead, you can check one out from the library all year)
    2. email it to yourself, than print it at school
    3. email it to Mr. Penas--dpenas@paplv.org and let him know what happened
My homework is going to be late, can I still hand it in later?
  • Yes, but each day it is late, points will be subtracted.
  • Here is how it works:
    • You will have 24 hours to complete the assignment, and it will be automatically dropped to a 70% (30% off).  If it isn’t turned in within that 24 hours, you will be sent to an administrator who will then give you an additional 24 hours or Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday school to complete the work for a grade of 50%.  If you do not complete your work after seeing an administrator, it is the teachers discretion to give you a 0% on the assignment.  If your homework is not turned in after the interventions, I will assume that you have chosen not to complete the work; parent contact will have been made prior to receiving a 0%.
