News

Students that are absent are responsible for checking the calendar in the classroom upon their return to see what material they missed. The calendar is also avialable on the website.

Notebook and folder checks can occur at any point during the quarter. Students should keep these materials organized and complete.


I follow SPS policy for late work. According to the SPS Student Handbook:

"A late grade of 75% of the earned grade will be assigned if the assignment is completed and returned the following school day. If the student does not have the completed assignment to turn in on the following day, the student may complete the assignment until the teacherassigned cut-off for the late work for a maximum of a 50 percent of the earned grade; after that point, the assigned grade will be a zero in the gradebook."
