Attendance and Late Work Policy

Sherry Siler—instructor
_____________________________________________________________

Attendance
4 free hours of absences. I do not distinguish between excused and unexcused absences. Absences beyond 4 hours lose:
	2 points for MWF or MTWTh classes 3 points for TH classes 6 points for once-a-week classes.

Cell Phones—You must be fully present in class. This means that you must not concern yourself with outside communication. If your cell phone rings, vibrates, beeps, etc; if you check your voicemail; or if you talk on your cell during class, you will be counted absent for the day.

Students may be dropped from the course at the instructor’s discretion with more than:
	3 hours of absences within the first 4 weeks of class 4 hours of absences within the first 6 weeks of class 6 hours of absences at the last day of withdrawal

Absence does NOT excuse you from turning in work. I do not evaluate late:
	Quizzes
	Classwork
	Homework
	Journal Entries
Students who miss class are responsible for contacting classmates to obtain notes and assignment information.

Class Contacts Record the name, e-mail, and phone number of 3 class contacts on the back of this form.

Tardiness If you are more than 10 minutes late, you are absent. Treat your fellow students and your instructor with respect, and demonstrate self-respect by not interrupting class by arriving more than 10 minutes late.

Late Work Make up tests will receive a 5 point penalty. The student is responsible for making arrangements for taking a make up test.

Late papers and projects will receive a 5 point penalty. Late papers and projects must be submitted within two weeks of the original due date.

I have read this attendance and late-work policy. I understand the policy and agree to work within its parameters.
