“Makeup” Test Policy: Approval for making up a missed test should be given prior to the scheduled test. The makeup test must be taken within two weeks following the scheduled test. Documentation is required for all make-ups. Except for extraordinary circumstances, approval for a makeup test will not be granted if the scheduled test has already been given. In this case, the final exam score will replace the excused missed test.

Attendance Policy: Attendance is a requirement in this class. If you miss a class, you are responsible for making up any missed work. Attendance will be taken each class period. Attendance means RESPONSIBILITY – I look much more favorably on students who have good attendance habits.
