Note:

Homework, Classwork, & Class Participation are given expectations of all students. One missed HW per marking period will not affect grade, however, absenteeism is not an excuse for not doing homework. Absent students are expected to turn in homework the next science class.  Missing homeworks will be recorded as a “0” in the appropriate area – Content or Lab Skills. Late homeworks (accepted no more than 1 day late) will be recorded as “Late”. A pattern of late work will affect appropriate area grade.
