What is your late work or retake/redo policy?

Class work/Homework/Tests/Quizzes/Projects - It is important that 
you are prepared and do your best on all work, as all work is of 
equal value. 
 
ABSENT MAKEUP POLICY: If you are absent, it is your 
responsibility to make up the missed work. You must submit the 
work directly to Mr. Hill when completed. 

LATE WORK POLICY:  All work will be accepted for full 
credit up to 5 days before the current grading quarter ends.  
(Parent contacts will be made and possible after school time 
arranged to complete work after any work is more than 3 days 
late.) After the dead line of 5 days prior to the end of 
the grading quarter, all work not completed will be given a 
failing score.
  
REDO/RETAKE POLICY:  All work may be attempted as many times as a 
student desires for full credit.  Arrangements must be made with 
Mr. Hill for either before or after school to retake a test or 
quiz.  All other assignments may be completed anytime.

Do you give extra credit?

I am more interested in students learning the topics covered and 
working toward mastery of those concepts.  Given the fact 
students can redo or retake any assignment or test as many times 
as they desire, extra credit will not offered.

Why does my child not bring home graded papers?

I collect and keep all graded work in a portfolio for each 
student for discussion with parents during partent/teacher 
conferences. Work may be returned at the end of P/T conferences 
or at the end of a grading period.

How can I check my childs grade?

Students grades can be seen by getting a password from the school 
district and accessing the parent portal of the districts grading 
system called JMC.  Please call the district technology 
department for more information.
