***ABSENT/LATE WORK***

If you must be absent, make sure this is excused immediately.
It is the responsibility of the student to obtain the missing assignments and notes.
A student has two days to make up the work that was missed during an absence and it is the student’s responsibility to turn that work in. After that time the student will receive a zero for any assignment not turned in.
Work will be accepted late, with a penalty 25% per day
malfunctioning technology is not a valid excuse!
