In addition all work must be answered in complete sentences.  Work that does not fulfill this criteria will not be graded.  Late work will be graded as follows 1 day late the maximum grade will be a 70, two days late the maximum grade will be a 40,  work that is theree or more days late is a 0!  (points are not deducted when you are absent from school)

When absent you are responsible to find out what you missed on your return, and make arrangements for turning the work in.  If you are absent for a test or quiz you will be expected to make it up on your return.
