6. Nota Bene: Some things to note are: If you have to return to your locker for any of the daily materials, you will receive a tardy. Taking time out of class to retrieve your materials is the same as being tardy to class – essentially, lost class time. Always be prepared. Assigned work in due at the start of class. You are expected to participate during class discussions and classroom activities. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to get the make up assignments when you return. You will have as many days to turn in the assignment, as you were absent (SEE orange folder). Labs must be made up by arrangement with your teacher. Late homework will result in a 50% grade drop the first day late. After that, no late papers may be turned in Red/Green for electronic devices: NO electronic devices may be out while the RED side of the electronic device sheet is showing. All electronic devices, if out while a RED side is showing, will be taken & turned into the office with a referral.
