* If a student is absent from class, he or she is responsible to make up all missed assignments in a timely manner. Upon return to school, students should ask the teacher what they've missed throughout their absence, and the work should be made up by the next day. However, if a student is absent for an extended period of time, extra time will be given to make the work up. Any work that has been graded and not made up after a student has returned, will result in a zero. *
