Lates: It is expected that you will be in your desk and ready to work by the second bell. If you should come late to class, you will often find the door closed and locked. Please do not bang on the door, just knock politely and I will let you in as soon as it is convenient to do so.
Absences: You are expected to take an active part in your schooling. For this reason, you are responsible for finding out about missed assignments. I will not hunt you down over missed work. Arrangements should be made immediately upon your return to school to get missed work in. Some assignments and labs may be impossible to repeat and for these assignments you may have to accept an alternative assignment. If you have to miss a test or a quiz for any reason, phone the school office BEFORE the scheduled exam or quiz and have the secretaries report this to me.
