Make-Ups

Minimize

 

All students are responsible for arranging make-up times with me.  Students have the number of days they were absent to make up an assignment.  After that number of days, a zero will be recorded if an assignment has not been made up.  Students who no-show twice to a make-up appointment will receive a zero for that assignment
