Welcome to Religion 8
I hope that everyone enjoyed summer break. I am looking forward to seeing you again! Some pointers:
Set yourself up for success!
Arrive to class on time
Bring the following to class:
🗹 Homework Planner
🗹 “Charged” Chromebook
🗹 Religion textbook
🗹 Composition book
🗹 2-pocket folder
🗹 Pencil case with art supplies
Complete & submit assignments on time
Note: After Labor Day, “Unprepared for Class” slips will be issued.
Middle School Academic Policy for Late Work Submission
All middle school teachers have a standardized late work policy designed to promote responsibility and time management skills that are essential for academic success.
Homework & Practice Assignments
Students who fail to submit homework or practice assignments will receive a zero with no opportunity for makeup credit. This policy encourages consistent daily engagement with course material.
Classwork & Assignments
Late submissions will be accepted within one calendar week of the original due date for a maximum of 50% credit. Work submitted after this date will receive a grade of zero. Students must notify teachers via email when submitting late work—Google Classroom messages do not fulfill this requirement.
Assessments & Evaluations
Missed quizzes and tests due to absence must be completed upon return or within one week for extended absences. It is each student’s responsibility to schedule makeup assessments.
