Important Health Information

 

  1. All headings should be completed or there will be a 1 point deduction for every missing item.

 

    2. All work must be done in blue or black ink, or in pencil. Always have a spare pen or pencil. If you choose to do your work in any other colors, including purple or turquoise, the work will receive a 5 point deduction in the grade.

 

    3. All health work has due dates. If you do not finish the work by the due date it will be graded as a zero. The work can be completed at a later date and be submitted, but will receive a 5 point deduction for being late. Any work completed after the due date must be handed directly to me.

 

    4. Anytime that you are not satisfied with a grade below 70 you may come to see me before or after school to discuss it and either stay after school to work on it or sign out a health book and take the work home to improve it. Maximum grade for improved work is 95.
