--------------------------------------
Does Ms. Mick accept late work?
No. Ms. Mick expects students to come to class prepared everyday.
Work is accepted when Ms. Mick collects the first time, no excuses.
--------------------------------------
Does Ms. Mick allow students to do make-up work?
Of course! If a student has been gone from school for a legitimate
reason they will be given a reasonable amount of time to recieve and turn in
make-up work. Students and parents must understand that sometimes
classwork cannot be made up, for instance a group activity, a video, or an
in-class assignment.
--------------------------------------
Who is responsible for make-up work?
The student is responsible for make-up work. The student needs to ask
Ms. Mick for make-up work the day they return to class. Students who wait
a few days or weeks to get make-up work will not recieve credit for their
work. Make-up work needs to be done in a timely fashion, and it is the
student's responsiblitiy.
--------------------------------------
Should students put their names on their papers?
Yes! First and last names are necessary everytime a student expects a
grade or credit for their work. NO NAME, NO GRADE.
--------------------------------------
Are students expected to be on time for class?
Of course! It is intrusive when students are showing up late on a
regular basis. Students need to be in class and prepared everyday.
Excessive tardies will be dealt with on an individual basis.
--------------------------------------
How can I reach Ms. Mick if I have any questions?
Ms. Mick can be reached at mick@aps.edu if you have internet access.
Ms. Mick can be reached at 345-9021 ext. 82110 during school hours, a
message can be left on voicemail. Parents may also send questions or
concerns in writing, via their student.
--------------------------------------
How often should I check my child's progress?
Each student has a planner with a place for weekly progress reports. I
am more than to happy to fill these out once a week if the student asks me
to. Fridays are usually best for this unless their are unusual circumstances
during that week.
--------------------------------------
How often is this website updated?
As often as possible. I hope this means at least once a month or at least
once during a six week grading period, sometimes once every week or so.
--------------------------------------
What can I do to bring up my grade?
Are you attending class? Are you paying attention and taking notes when you
are here? Are you doing all of your homework and turning every assignment
in on time? Are you keeping track of your assignments and keeping up with
your notebook? Are you asking questions when you don't understand
something? Do you come in during tutorial to see Ms. Mick when you have
questions? Are you attending the afterschool tutoring?
If you answered all of these questions yes, then you should be making a
decent grade already. If you answered no to any of these questions then you
have your answer. You know how to improve your grades...don't wait until
it's it too late.
