Late Work

Late work does not receive the same priority of timely teacher review as on time work. 

Assignments submitted late will receive an 11% deduction, leaving students with the maximum potential grade of 89%.

Any work not submitted within two weeks of the original due date will remain a zero with no further opportunity to regain credit.

Extra Credit

Extra credit is not given in Mr. Millhoff's social studies class.

However, there are opportunities to extend one's learning via Canvas.
