Policy for late work:
Late work will be accepted without penalty within 1 week of the original due date (if it is a digital assignment, I will close the assignment at 11:59pm, if it is a paper assignment it must be given to me in class). After the 1 week grace period, work will not be accepted. This applies to all assignments that are completed outside of class. Classwork is due by the end of the block, no exceptions.
Any major assessment (essays, projects, tests) may be redone or re-taken. If you are opting to redo an assignment, you must tell me (in person) within 1 day of receiving the initial assignment back. Once I approve your request, you will have 3 days (including weekends) to resubmit the assignment for potential full credit.
I am not required to accept late work. If I see that lateness becomes a habit, I will no longer accept late work.
