Make-Up Assignments
Students who are absent (excused/unexcused) will have the opportunity to make up work within one week (5 days) after returning to school. Once students have returned to class, students are responsible for obtaining all missed assignments. If the assignments are unclear, the student should report to the teacher for clarification. Students should only seek clarification before or after school begins, not during instructional time. All students will be afforded the opportunity to make up any missed assignments within the allotted time period. For further information on this policy, please refer to the TWJ Student Handbook.
Please remember that when turning in assignments, it is a representation of “you” and will be graded as such.
Extra Credit
Extra credit points can be earned for active participation in the DECA Club’s activities/fundraisers/events. Additional points may also be given for being an active participant in other school activities.
