Absent Policy

If you are absent:

• It is your responsibility to check Schoology postings to find out what was missed. Schoology may have many videos of lessons posted.

• Contact a friend

• See me at lunch or during FLEX if you have questions

Posting of Homework

Homework is assigned almost daily. Most assignments are due at the beginning of the next class period. I post Homework assignments daily on Schoology. Please look at it often, as I will be using these sites as a major form of communication. Test/Quiz dates will be posted ahead of time in both places as well.

Power School

A way to check grades on a daily basis is Power School, an internet link to your child’s grades in every class. Please use this tool as a way to keep track of your child’s progress in turning in homework on time. I will update every week. This is an invaluable resource!

Re-taking a quiz

All students will be awarded the opportunity to retake a quiz and show mastery. Re-taking of quizzes must occur before school, after school, or during flex-time to ensure enough time for completion within 1 week of test date.

• The best possible score a student can receive is an 80%.

• Students also must come in for re-teaching time so then they will score better on the retake.
