Skyward will show the assignment as Missing, as long as it is still worth points. Please see the unit calendar tab for last day an assignment can earn credit. Reviews will not be accepted late, as they are a completion grade and students have ample time to complete them.

The student is responsible for completing any PREP work at home, prior to coming to class the next day.
