Behavior Expectations - Students are to be respectful of the teacher, each other, and the learning environment. Students should arrive on time, not call out or exhibit distracting behavior. There will be graduated consequences for poor behavior culminating in administrative contact. So, be good!
Extra Help - Mornings of the quiz/test @ 7:30.
Absence
Students should do their best to get what they missed from Google Classroom or another student. If necessary a student may ask me, however my notes are entirely in Spanish and normally do not have translations. If a student misses a graded homework or classwork, they may make it up for full credit before that week's quiz. Put "absent" in the private comment box.
If a quiz is missed, the student must make it up the next day that he/she is present for class. It is the student's responsibility to make up the quiz. Quizzes must be made up within one week. Quizzes, tests, or projects never completed will receive a zero.
Prolonged absence (more than 3 consecutive days) will be considered an extenuating circumstance. More time will be given to make up work. The student must contact me directly to make arrangements.
