Students are expected to check the homework calendar when absent before coming to class. Often work can be made up before coming, if notes were given make sure you copy them down into your notes and ask questions upon return.
Students and parents are encouraged to join Remind. If there is an assignment that is due the next day, a message will be sent at 6:30 pm the night before. Students can also use this to ask questions after school hours or when absent.
