Attendance Policy

In Case You Are Late or Absent: It is your responsibility to get the course notes, handouts, and project assignments should you miss class or be late (Note: If a child is more than 5 minutes late without a proper note, they are considered skipping class and will be written up as so!)

The make-up policy will be in agreement with Rutherford County Schools Attendance Policy. An exceptional note: Students are strongly encouraged and recommended not to schedule appointments and/or miss school habitually.

Failure to turn in the missing assignment within the five days will result in a zero for the assignment.

Additional Assistance

Students may request or be requested during RTI time if they are not already requested by a teacher. I strongly encourage students to take advantage of RTI, if they need additional assistance or have been ABSENT.

RCS Email Accounts

Each student is provided with an Office 365 email address through their school login. ALL STUDENTS are REQUIRED to utilize their school email account for communication with the teacher.

Edmodo

All students will receive an Edmodo account within the first two-three weeks of school. This is a website that allows students to access assignments, tests, shared folders, links, etc. We will use Edmodo almost every day in and out of the classroom.
