What if I do not have my homework when it is due?
YOU can always turn in homework the next classday for 30 points off. After
that, it is a zero. But... a 70 is always better than a zero.
What do I do if I am absent?
When you are absent, please check the absentee folders just inside the
classroom door for the missed assignments. If you still have questions
about the assignment, please come see Mrs. Fauver after class, during lunch,
or after school.
When is Mrs. Fauver avaliable for tutor help?
Mrs. Fauver's tutoring times are to be announced at the start of school.
What do I do if I have lost my ISN?
ISNs are a required part of Mrs. Fauver's class. If you should lose your
ISN, it is important that you recreate your Table of Contents, Page numbers,

an example copy of all the work that belongs in the ISN should you need help
remembering what goes on what pages.

of places neatly and straight.

areas such as lakes, reservoirs, seas, etc.
