Late assignments will be accepted for partial credit. In the case of an excused absence, previously assigned work will be due on the 1st day back to school, and assignments issued during the absence will be due based upon the number of days absent. You have the number of days you were absent to makeup absent work.  In the case of an extended excused absence, individual arrangements will be made.
