Phone calls will be automatically sent home for students who are tardy If Tardy: Enter the classroom quietly Join in class activity without disruption Stephanie Green 9 Absent Procedure Look at the weekly planner and find the day (s) you were absent Write the assignment in your planner and collect any work from the copy bin that may go with it. You have one day for every absence to finish the work. After completing, return the work directly to me Stephanie Green 10 Absent Procedure If a student is absent on the day the assignment or project is due, the assignment is due the first day the student returns. If the student is absent on test day, he/she is responsible for taking the test the day that he/she returns. It is the student’s responsibility to see me about taking the test. Not all work can be made up. Sometimes we watch videos in class, conduct lab investigations, hold class discussions and students are given credit for these activities. If a student misses class, they may not be able to make up the assignment. It is imperative for students to be in class every day. It is the responsibility of the student to collect all missed work.
