Makeup Work
Students are responsible to inquire about and complete all classwork
regardless of absences. All work is due the day the student returns, unless
the teacher grants an extension, and is to be handed in directly to the
teacher. Tests and quizzes must be taken on the day the student
returns. At the teacher’s discretion, the test may be rescheduled for a later
date. Tests must be made up within one week of the student’s return. If by
then the student has not made up the test, he will receive a zero for that test.

entering a classroom or the dormitory. During non-school hours, no visitors
are allowed into the building without receiving permission from the Dormitory
Supervisor or a member of the Administration. In towners who do not have
assigned dormitory beds must receive permission from the Dormitory
