Notes will NOT be collected for Chapters 15 and 16. Instead, observed note taking, class participation and in-class behavior will determine the “Participation” portion of the grade.

Notes will not be given out unless you have an excused absence from class or are in ISSC. Notes must be asked for.

No assignments will be accepted after the due date. Assignments are due at the beginning of class, not the end, unless otherwise noted. Any assignments turned in after the due date will find their way into the recycling bin unless an excused absence is presented immediately. If you are in ISSC, turn in the assignment at the beginning of the next class you attend, or it will not be accepted – I will NOT ask you for it, it is up to YOU to remember it. Suspension is not an excused absence and assignments will be accepted at my discretion.
