For every excused day you are absent from school, you have two days to make up the work.
If an assignment is turned in one day late, the grade will be lowered 5 points.
If an assignment is turned in two days late, the grade will be lowered 10 points.
If an assignment is turned in three days late, the grade will be lowered 15 points; however, the lowest grade that will be posted in the grade book is a 50.
If a student does not turn in the assignment after the third day, a zero (0) is posted in the grade book.
A student will receive a grade no lower than a 50 for a serious attempt at the assignment, even though the actual grade may be less than that.
