time is an easy 100, so do not forget to turn it in. Progress reports more than 2 days late will result in parents being contacted. At the end of the 5th week of each six week grading period students with a grade below a 70 will be given a progress report to take home and have signed. In addition to the progress report, parents will also be called regarding student performance and potential failure. The 5th week progress report must be turned in the following class period. Notification will be done with a note, phone call or in person. I will document efforts made to contact parents. All copies of notes sent home will be kept on file.
