BHS Late Work Policy - Spring 2021

The following school-wide policy will be applied for all assignments which are submitted after the due date. 

  • All assignments MUST be submitted on time as assigned. 
  • Assignments that are turned in after 11:59 pm on the due date will be considered LATE and recorded in PowerSchool. 
  • Students that turn in a completed assignment after the initial due date will receive a 5 point deduction per day for the first five days. (Example: 5 points - 1 day late, 10 points - 2 days late, 25 points - 5 days late).  
  • Once the assignment has been turned in, it will be graded. The grade will be recorded in Canvas/PowerSchool but LATE will still be indicated and the appropriate points will be deducted from the raw score based on the above rule. 

If the assignment is more than five days late, a score of ZERO will stand for the assignment.
