MAKE-UP WORK When a student has an excused absence, he/she must make up any work missed within (5) school days or according to a plan devised by the teacher if an extension is approved. It is the student’s responsibility, before or after class, to arrange make-up work to be done outside the regular school day. If the work is not completed within five (5) days, or as otherwise arranged, the student receives no credit for the incomplete work. No make-up work may be done if the absence is unexcused. It is the student's responsibility to arrange this. The five (5) day rule does not apply to long-standing due dates on assignments such as term papers. In those cases, it is expected that the student turn in the assignment on his first day back to school. A student who has been suspended will be given the opportunity to make up major assignments (i.e. tests and quizzes) within five (5) school days upon return to school. Make up work will not be given until the first day the student returns to school after the suspension.
A student who will be out of school for three or more days may request that the Office of Academic Support and Advisement (770-682-4106) collect homework assignments for the period of time he/she will be absent. The teachers must have twenty-four hours notice, and the student is expected to turn in all requested work within five (5) school days upon returning to school. Homework cannot be requested while student is absent due to suspensions.
