FAQ
When is my work due?
When an assignment is due, it is due at the beginning of the hour on the due date (regardless of the time Google Classroom marks it late).
Students are responsible for any work missed due to any excused absence, field trip, athletic event, suspension or other school related absence. That work must be completed within the number of days equivalent to the absence plus one. Students who are absent due to school business should make plans to complete their work on the assigned due date.
Tests and quizzes must be made up on the day the student returns to school from the absence. (This will most likely have to be done during academic intervention. Make plans to stay after school to make up missed tests and quizzes).
Can I go to the bathroom?
Yes, you may use the restroom before class begins. During the class period, please wait until I am finished with the lesson. Hallway/ Office passes are allowed on a case by case basis. Frequent use of the restroom may result in a referral to the health center or student services department.
Can I borrow books from your classroom library?
Of course, on the inside cover of each book is a QR code; scan the QR code using a cell phone or other device and fill out the Google form. The link to form can be found under important documents under classwork on Google Classroom. Return the book directly to Mrs. Frownfelter when you have finished reading.
Francis Bacon once said, “Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts; others to be read, but not curiously; and some few are to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention.”
Did I miss anything while I was absent?
Yes, check Google Classroom for your missed work.
How can I get my grade up?
See the Grading Policies Page.
How can I get some extra help?
See me during my office hours, during Academic Intervention, before or after school, schedule a meeting with me, or email me. I will respond to emails during the school day. Check out the About the Teacher page for specific times.
Can I turn in late work?
Yes.
If you would like to earn credit for a late assignment (that I have marked "M" in the grade book), complete the missing assignment then fill out the late work submission form. I may have follow-up questions for you before I grade your work. If I need more information from you or your answers are not sufficient for me to grade your work, I will reach out to you via email.
All late work will be penalized 20% of the final grade.
All assignments must be completed before the assessment for the unit of study in which it was assigned.
Submit 1 form per late assignment.
Missed tests and quizzes should be made up upon return from an absence. Speak with your instructor to schedule a time to take the quiz/ test during intervention or before school. There is no need to submit a late work form.
All late work is due two weeks before the end of the semester. Any late work submitted after that day will only be graded if a student is in danger of failing the course after taking the final exam.
