Homework and Late Work: Students will often be expected to complete
reading or essay work for homework.
Late Work: You may turn in only one late assignment per semesterat full credit, but you must notify me in advance and turn it in the following day. Otherwise, late work will never be accepted. A malfunctioning computer or printer is not an acceptable reason for late work.
Grading:Citizenship: I follow the
criteria set forth by BVHSAcademic: Majority of grade
is based on assessments (essays), the balance of the grade is based on quizzes, homework and classwork.
Grades are posted regularly in class throughout each semester. Q will be updated every 2 weeks or so,
depending on my work load.
