Students will spend the first 30 minutes doing homework, and expected to keep their grades up. If extra time is needed, students need to let the teacher know.
Absences
If a student is going to be absent, every effort should be made to notify their teacher prior to the absence. Students can email mwis.suzuki@gmail.com or text 385-2942 (make sure to identify yourself).
We understand how busy our students’ lives are, so if a student need to “share” their time with other obligations, schedules can be worked out to accommodate all extracurricular activities. However, students who attend all meetings will be given priority in competitions and travel.
