Remember: Late work is normally not accepted except for excused absences, to bring grades up to passing (60%), or according to ZAP policies. Late writing assignments, however, will be accepted for 50% credit. Absent work is due, generally, three days after a student returns to class. All make-up work must be turned in by November 11 to count on first trimester grades.

Memorization:  "Those Winter Sundays"

Take make-up tests within three days of returning to school. Arrive to class on time. Make up tardies within three days. Turn in all assignments on time.
All personal items, especially backpacks, must be under the desk and out of the aisles at all times.
Use pencil only in class.
Turn in absent make-up work within three days of returning to school.
