Grading Policies
The details of how grades are calculated are contained in the course syllabus:
Late Work
Late work will be accepted, but a reason must be provided for why it is late. Failure to provide a reason will result in zero Work Habits points and a possible reduction in the grade itself.
Cheating
If a student is caught plagiarizing from the Internet or turning in work from other students, the student will receive a zero on the assignment and will not be allowed to make it up. In addition, if a student copies another student's work, both students will receive a zero and will not be allowed to make it up.
Class Dismissal
Ms. Blomeyer dismisses the class, not the bell. The floor and computer tables must be clean of trash and all students must be in their seats and quiet before class is dismissed. No tardy passes are given if a class is dismissed late.
Classroom Expectations
- Be on time and in your seat when the bell rings.

- Respect the property in the room and the property of your fellow students.
