Assignments/Homework

Homework is practice Homework should be completed on the day it is due.

• Homework will receive a 1 if it is completed and ready to check, a 0 if it is incomplete or if it is done but not in the classroom when it is due.

Graded assignments, compositions and projects not completed or turned in on the day they are due will be considered “LATE” and will lose 10% of the grade each day they are late. (No late assignment will receive less than 50% of the possible points)
