EVALUATION OF LATE AND MISSED ASSIGNMENTS
Students are responsible for their own behaviour and for completing and submitting work for evaluation on time. Students must make themselves aware of the each due date and the ultimate deadline which is the last opportunity a student has for submitting an assignment for evaluation.
Teachers support students in the development of their learning skills and work habits that make them successful learners. Teachers, students and parents will work together and use a number of strategies to ensure students complete their work and submit it on time. Suggested strategies include:
counselling the student and offering extra help
setting up a student contract
helping students develop better time-management skills
scheduling conferences with the student and parents/guardians
referring to the student's IEP for suggested accommodations and/or modification
providing alternative forms of assignments.
Should the need occur, students must advise their teacher when a challenge will prevent the student from submitting work on time. The teacher will use professional judgement and consider extenuating circumstances for individual students. Students must also understand that there are consequences for incomplete, missing and late assignments.Â
