When you are absent While you are absent check SWIFT websites and enter information in your
homework record Do not write ABSENT because all work needs to be completed Download and print all available missed work and complete it. Any work not available on SWIFT websites must be picked up from the appropriate
location in each classroom. If you cannot find the assignments or need clarification about the directions, ask the
teacher during an appropriate time. It is your responsibility to find out what you missed and complete and turn it in within
the allowable time. Work is due: One day of make-up per day you were absent. (Example: You were gone two days, you get two days once you return to turn in
your work.)
Work that is assigned prior to being absent is due on the due date or when you return.
