EVALUATION AND REQUIREMENTS
Attendance Policy
To complete this course in a timely manner to remain on track for graduation, you are expected to be in class on time every day, to remain in class and be productive throughout the period. You are expected to make up any time you miss by completing any work that you missed outside of class. The more class time that you miss, the further behind you will get. It does not matter if your absences are excused or not. The work in this class is cumulative and is designed to be self paced with on hand facilitation available. Keep me informed of any circumstances prevent you from being in class on a regular basis. Make sure that you arrange for alternative means of completing your work if you are unable to be in class every day. I am here to help, but the power and responsibility to be successful in this class are yours alone.
