Homework+Policy

= Homework policy: = • ** Daily homework (Any work worth less than 20 points):** • ** Larger Assignments ** • **PARTIAL CREDIT IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN A ZERO!** • **It is the __STUDENT’S__ responsibility to verify work missed PRIOR to known absences!**
 * This work is due at the beginning of class when I ask for it. Work handed in later in the class or later that day earns “passing points” (7 pts. for a 10 pt. assignment) and work handed in the next day or any day that quarter earns __half credit__.**
 * (More than 20 points, usually needing to be typed): This work is due anytime during the day that it is due. That means if there is a printer problem at home, the student has the entire school day to solve the problem and hand it in before going home. If late, the assignment receives a late penalty of 20% during the first week it is late. After that first week, work turned in during the quarter that it was assigned can earn up to 50% of the original points if done according to the standards set for the assignment.**

= ENG I ONLY Homework policy: =
 * **// Typically, most assignments completed outside of class are a result of the student(s) not finishing what was initiated during class, the assignment is an ongoing essay/project that has a pre-determined timeline, OR students need to study for quizzes/tests. //**
 * **Please remember that I understand things happen, but taking advantage of my tardy policy and consistently turning-in late work //__will not__// be tolerated.**
 * **You have THREE late ‘forgiveness passes’ per quarter for missed homework. These WILL be noted in PowerTeacher.**
 * **Habitual turning-in assignments/homework late will not be permitted to any further late work.**
 * **If you have excused absences, then you are permitted to turn-in work late for each day of your excused absence(s).**
 * **Work is due at the __beginning of class__ when I ask for it. Work handed in later in the class or later that day will earn “passing points” (ie: 7 pts. for a 10 pt. assignment). Work handed in the next day or any day that quarter earns __half credit__.**
 * **PARTIAL CREDIT IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN A ZERO!**
 * **Students** **must verify work missed PRIOR to known absences!**
