* Please note it is the student's responsibility to find out what work they
missed while absent. I do follow the school board policy regarding time
frames to make up work. If a student is absent 1 day, they have one day to
make up that work. It will not be accepted after that. Long term
assignments do not get extra time due to absence. If you are absent on the
day an assignment is due, you must turn it in immediately upon your return.
