Late work will only be accepted in the grading period in which it was assigned.
Grading periods are divided into four quarters. Within each quarter, a progress report will be issued midway. Work assigned before that progress report will not be accepted after the report card is sent home. The same goes for any official report card.
If accepted, ALL late work is due to the teacher no more than a week before report card grades are due.
All late work is eligible for a maximum score of 60%. Work may be deemed unacceptable (and thus still missing) if it is incomplete or does not meet expectations.
