Attendance
AttendanceA student with an excused absence from class is responsible for the assignments that were missed. It is up to the student to inquire about missed work and tests. Zeros will be given if a student fails to make up work within the district’s allowed time frame. Unexcused absences void all make-up privileges.
Absences: More than 11 total in a semester = loss of sem. creditMore than 5 unexcused in a quarter = loss of qt. creditMore than 8 unexcused in a semester = loss of sem.

Late Work
Late WorkClass assignments, homework assignments, papers and projects may be turned in late with a penalty of 20% of the points possible subtracted for each day late. If a student has an excused absence for a test or quiz day, he/she is responsible for arranging to make up the test before or after school. Arranging a make-up requires setting an appointment with the instructor. A missed make-up appointment without prior notice will result in a zero.
Method of Evaluation
Method of Evaluation: Points will be assigned for homework assignments, homework quizzes, mid-chapter quizzes, notebook checks, and chapter tests. Grades are calculated by percentage of total points (points earned/total points). Semester exams will be given at the end of each semester. Semester averages will be a cumulative total from the start of each semester.
Semester grades are calculated as follows:0.90(Semester Average) + 0.10(Semester Exam grade) =
Semester Grade
