Homework Request Policy

Students and parents are responsible for communicating to the Guidance Office and to individual teachers of any absences, missed instruction and requests for homework. If your student will be absent for 1-2 days, you can access Moodle and/or communicate with teachers to determine any work that needs to be made up. If your students will be absent for 2 days or more, contact the Guidance Office and determine a time you plan to pick up homework. Guidance Office staff will notify teachers of extended absences, teachers will bring any necessary work for your student to the Guidance Office, and you may pick up the collection of homework in the Guidance Office.
