US History

Eighth Grade U.S. History

>>>>>Grade 8 U.S. HISTORY:  
LATE WORK POLICY: 
Late work will only be accepted for partial credit if no more than one day late. An absence due to illness will earn one day’s grace per day absent; a planned absence for other reasons will not be an excuse for late work. However, long range assignments will not be accepted late. Testing that has been announced in advance of an absence will be made up the day you return to school. Consideration and some flexibility may be granted for unusual circumstances. Chapter reading checks may be corrected with page references for some credit recovery as they serve as formative assessments leading to mastery.

LONG TERM ASSIGNMENT DUE DATES: May 21. See calendar of important end-of-the-year history dates I gave you.
