Classroom Policies
Homework
Homework will be assigned on a regular basis. Assignments will be posted on the
assignment board in class, as well as my website listed on the first page of this syllabus.
No late homework will be accepted. The purpose of this policy is to teach and encourage
habits of timeliness and responsibility, which are extremely valuable.
Missing Work
When you are absent
Ms. Hershey will
You must
Grade it
(If you know you are going to be absent, pick up your work ahead of time. Work is due
immediately upon return unless otherwise arranged. If returning from an unexpected excused
absence, work is due the day after you return. It is your responsibility to request make-up work.)
Assessments serve multiple purposes: to demonstrate that you have learned material, as
well as assisting you in the learning of material. If you are absent for a test or a quiz, it is your
responsibility to come and schedule a time to make up the quiz/test. No points will be taken
off for lateness as long as the assessment is made up as timely as possible.
Cell Phone/Electronics
Cell phones and other personal electronic devices may only be used in class with direct instruction
from the teacher. This includes but is not limited to cell phones, iPods, iPads, or laptops. If you bring
your device to school, it is recommended that it remain safely locked in your locker. If you choose to
carry your device on your person, it must remain off and put away while in my classroom.
