8th Grade ELA follows the district policy which states that students will have one day for each excused absence to turn in work. Late work will be accepted until the date given by the teacher during the week of the end of the quarter; however, there will be a thirty percent deduction in points for the assignment. No late work will be accepted after the end of the quarter for assignments that were given during that quarter. Please note that if you are absent on a test day, you will be expected to take the missed test on the day you return.
