Homework Policy CP Biology |
||||
|
Missing assignments are
unacceptable at BHSN. Students will forfeit their “student tutorial” time to
be assigned to a specific location for the completion of their missing work.
Repeat offenders will be assigned to a “homework make-up detention” that goes
from 3 – 4:30, at which time bus service will be offered. Please complete
your work on time. Thanks! |
