Frequentley Asked Questions about Progress Book
Why does my child have a "missing" in the assignment section?
Students who have been absent and I do not see their work due to the absence, are given a "missing" to their assignment until they return to school. Once they return to school, I ask for their assignment/ to complete the test or quiz. If they have it completed, they will receive full credit. "Missing" assignments are registered in progress book as a "0", however, this does not mean that it is the student's grade. It only means, I am awaiting the completion of the work. Once work is completed, the appropriate grade will return.Back to Top
