Assignments are due at the beginning of class unless otherwise stated. Late work will be accepted one day late for up to 80% credit. If you have an excused absence, you will have the same amount of days you were absent to make up the work. Grading is based on the following scale: A/A- = 100%-90.0%

Citizenship: Every student will start each term with 85 citizenship points. These points may be lost if the student behaves inappropriately, breaks class rules, and/or after the third tardy. Each offense will result in the loss of five points; however, if students behave in a positive manner, are prepared and exhibit good citizenship in class they may receive additional points in five point increments. 90-100 = Outstanding
