Homework Policy

For my Part

All homework that must be completed will be shown on my homework page by 4:00 pm on the day which you attend my class.

For example:  If you are an A-day student, your homework will be placed online by 4:00 pm on that A-day.  If you are a B-day student, then your homework will be placed online by 4:00 pm on that B-day.

Work which is put online after 4:00pm will be useful for you to consider.

For your Part

You will be expected to:

complete the assigned homework by the due date, (usually the next day you have a class with me);

in the manner which is requested and should, of course, be legible;

making sure that your name, date of assignment, and block number are showing on the top of your work;

AND  MOST  IMPORTANTLY

 
Bring your homework to school on the due date!!!!  It should be your work!!!!
 
I know you won't believe this, but there are students who do the work but ignore the possibility of losing a grade by not having it in school on time.
 
Work that has been simply cut and pasted either from other students, or directly from the internet, will not have their work graded until it has been sufficiently altered to show that it is the student's work and not that of of someone else.
