We are not going to count work late. The official policy is that students have two weeks when we get back to turn in late work. However, we don't know how long we will be out. We hope that our #kmskids can and want to keep up with their work because learning is important. We don't want any student to get so far behind that the work piles high and becomes insurmountable. We don't want any student to fall behind his/her peers.
In the gradebook/Infinite Campus portal, we are going to mark student's work missing. This will accomplish two things:
(1) Both the student and parent will have a way to check for missing work in Infinite Campus. If you are set up with the mobile app, you should get a push notification for all gradebook updates.
(2) The teacher will be able to see a clear list of who is missing work and can communicate easily with parents & students about it.
Note that missing work will calcuate as a zero and will impact the average. However, as soon as the work is submitted, the grade will be given for full credit and replace the zero.
We strongly recommend that students keep up as they are able. If your household experiences any situation that prevents your child from doing or accessing work, please let us know so we can support you.
