Late Policy
If a student misses the due date on an assignment, late work will be accepted for a 7% point penalty every day it is late. Late work will not be accepted past 5 days unless prior arrangements with the teacher have been made. Extra time for assignments may be given at the discretion of the teacher, but requests for additional time must be made at least 24 hours BEFORE the due date. If an assignment is more than 1 day late, the student will be referred to the student success coach. If a student has 5+ assignments missing in a week, I will contact families to see what we can do to get you caught up.
