Beginning Monday, August 29, daily objectives and assignments will be posted to this website. This page will serve several purposes. The first is so that all students who miss school will be able to determine what has been missed and determine a reasonable frame of time within the guidelines of CMS policy to complete make-up work and assessments. To some degree, I can imagine that posting objectives and assignments will serve as a safety net for some who do not have an opportunity to copy assignments into the agenda. Relying solely on the website to recover assignments is not advised. The primary source of objectives and assignments will be to continue to copy them into the agenda at the beginning of each class. The student is responsible for this classroom procedure and is 100% accountable for completing assignments on time. This means that a student who fails to copy homework in the beginning of class, whether or not he or she can retrieve the daily assignment from the website even when I do not or cannot post the assignment, and consequently fails to turn in an assignment by the due date, will receive a zero.
