Assignments
must be handed in when they are due. Students who are absent on the day an
assignment is due may hand the assignment in when they return to school.
All assignments are listed in this syllabus and are due the following day.
The only exception to this is vocabulary assignments which are due on the
day of the test. Assignments not handed in when due will receive an
incomplete. The incomplete will be graded as a zero until the assignment is
turned in. Since all assignments are listed herein, there is no excuse for
a student to not complete the assignment if absent and hand it in when they
return to school. There is no such thing as make-up work for assignments!
Every class has a research component and major end of course project. Therefore, there is always some sort of
homework which needs to be completed, even on weekends. Technology is an
integral part of Marketing. Students who do not have access to a personal
home computer with Microsoft Office or the internet will need to make
arrangements to come in before school, stay after school, or come in on
Saturday.
The only
make-up work for this class is in the form of tests. If the student is
absent on the day of a test, they will be required to make up the test in
accordance with the school’s make-up work policy.
It is the
student's responsibility to get their assignments and make arrangements with
me for testing!
Having a job or extra
curricular activity is NOT and excuse for not being able to
complete an assignment or make up work. The student's education and
graduation MUST be the number one priority for every high
school student. Their future success depends on it!!
I am available for extra help
after school from 3:45 to 5:00, Monday
through Friday. Make-up tests will be given and detention will also be
done during this time. I will also come into school on Saturday from
10:00 to 1:00 provided prior arrangement has been made.
The following basic rubric will be used for determining the final
grade. (There may be minor differences in the advanced classes.)
