Class Information 

Make-up Work policy:

1. When students are absent, it is their responsibility to get missed work. Upon return to school, students should ask for any missed notes/work at a convenient time, not during instruction time. Timeline for make-up work: Number of days absent plus one day.

  2. If a student is absent the day of a test/quiz, the student will take the test/quiz upon return to school.

Reassessment policy: Quizzes will not be reassessed except at my discretion. Tests may be reassessed up to 4 days following the return of the assessment only during tutorials. 

In order to reassess a test, you must:

• have all homework assignments completed

• all test corrections done

• attend tutorial sessions before reassessing, The number of required tutoring sessions will be determined by the teacher.

Cell Phones/Electronic Devices:  If a phone/device is out when it is not supposed to be, it will be confiscated. 

Expectations of the Student:

Students will complete all assignments assigned. Homework/Formative assessments will be counted as a grade and checked daily in class. Homework is extra practice for students to master the necessary objectives for the course. Completing homework will improve and strengthen the students’ understanding of the covered concepts. 

Students will work collaboratively throughout the year and are expected to behave appropriately at all times. Respect for personal and public property will be practiced. Any action that is disrespectful, intentionally distracts other students from learning, or violates the student code of conduct, will warrant consequences.

Students are expected to take notes over the material in this class and to read assignments carefully. In the case of absence, it is YOUR responsibility to obtain any handouts and assignments missed and to complete them in a timely manner.

Students are expected to seek help in class by asking questions when you do not understand a topic. If further understanding is needed, you are expected to seek help through tutoring. If no attempt is made, I will have no sympathy and no choice but to give you the grade you deserve.
