Late assignments won’t be marked. If you have an excusable absence, the assignment must be turned in on your first day back. You are responsible to get your notes missed and homework when you are out!!!! Ask a friend to bring material to you or get a parent to pick it up. It is also on the YCMHS Homework website. You may email me and I will send you material…rcmckenzie@nstu.ca. I hope to use website animations eventually so if you have a computer at home you can see what we did in class.

Class rules are posted and the same as last year, school rules and NO GUM!

I consider gum popping and chomping to be rude and unprofessional when the gum is snapped and popped in class. This is NOT done in professional environments and will not be done in my class. Mints and refreshments are fine.

You will need…looseleaf, pencils, scientific calculator, graph paper and math set. You need these materials with you at all times!!!

Any questions? Email me or call 742-0187 before 9:00pm. Good Luck!
