  11. Questions to ask yourself when returning from an absence: WHERE should I go to collect the work I missed while I was absent? –The Absent Station WHAT do I do when I get to the Absent Station? - Log-in to the computer, go to Ms. Howard’s website, find your class tab, refer to the calendar, read the Daily Agenda, determine assignment(s) missed, and look to crate for copies. If no copies are to be found, print from the important document section on website. WHO should I talk to concerning the work we completed in class? –Ask 3, then me. WHEN should I turn in the work I missed while absent? -You have ONE week to make-up work. WHAT am I responsible for while I am absent? - The same work your peers completed, unless Ms. Howard says otherwise. WHY all the fuss? -There’s simply too many of you, for Ms. Howard to properly remember who was absent when and what they missed. When you’re absent, it is YOUR responsibility to make-up the work!
