You may makeup work during the current quarter. However it will be scored at 80% for the work missed. If you have an excused absence, you may have a day grace for each day you were absent while we were working on the work in class. Under exceptional circumstances, the student may negotiate a new due date with the teacher. If you are absent on the the due date the items are due when you return. I will contact your parent/guardians if you have an excessive number of missing assignments
Makeup is by appointment only. I am generally available Wednesday morning and after school (subject to meetings).

As an experiment, I am allowing students to correct and resubmit corrected work to Edu20. The action of correcting the assignment should be a learning experience.
They must resubmit the corrected work within one week of when the work was graded. The score for the resubmitted work will be 80% of the difference between the old score and new score added to the old score. Students only have one chance to resubmit work.
