Homework• Homework should be neat and completed on time
• Students will be allowed to make up homework for excused absences
• When students have a prearranged absence (a family vacation, wedding, out-of-town, etc...), they are responsible for making up all of their missed work and assignments.
• Students will be responsible for writing down all of their homework in their planners at the end of each day.
• All of my homework is posted on my website (most of the time)

• We want our students to succeed!
