Am I responsible for drills and homework if I am absent?

Yes, it is your responsibility to make-up the work you missed.  There is a 
drill book next to the missing worksheet bin.  The drill book contains a 
photocopy of the drills from each day. On the same sheet as the drill you 
will find the homework that you missed.
