Mr. Smith's 8th Grade Classroom

How do I make up work when I am absent?

The student must make up ass assigned classwork, homework, and tests missed due to being absent. Make up test may be given before or after school. A student has three days from the day he/she returns to school to see me and arrange a day and time to make up the test that was missed. Please remember, as the number of absences increase, your grade may decrease.

Tests, Quizzes, and Extra Help

Tests and quizzes, regardless of the grades, must be signed by the parent/guardian and returned to school to be kept on file. If your child is experiencing difficulty in any subject are I teach, extra help is always available to any student who asks for it. I am always available before or after school. If a student is staying after school for extra help, a note form the parent/guardian is to be written listening that you are aware your child is staying and their means of transportation home. Verbal permission will not be accepted.

Care of Copybooks and Text Books

All copybooks and workbooks are to be covered in clear contact paper. Textbooks that are loaned to the student are to be covered in book socks, book covers, or brown paper. Please be advised there is a ZERO TOLERANCE for any type of graffiti on books, school bags, pencil cases, etc.
