5. Make-up Work : Students, who are absent for any reason, are required to make up work missed in each subject. Class assignment information is available on Blackbaud. Normally, one day will be allowed for each day missed, except in cases of prolonged absences where the teacher involved may make other provisions. It is the student’s and the parents’ responsibility to obtain all make-up work from his/her teacher immediately upon return to school. Failure to obtain make-up work is no excuse for not doing work missed. Tests can be made up during study halls, before or after school, during that class (with teacher permission - in the testing room). Students are responsible to make necessary arrangements. 6. Late Work : Students are expected to complete all work by the assigned due date. The following penalties will be enforced on all unexcused late work: For assignments worth 49 points or fewer: 1 day late, 20% penalty; 2 days late, 40% penalty; 3 days late, no credit given. Unless related to an excused absence, no work for the quarter may be turned in after the close of the marking period. For assignments worth 50 points or more: 1 day late, 10% penalty; 2 days late, 20% penalty; 3 days late, 40% penalty; 4 days late 60% penalty; 5 days late, no credit given. Unless related to an excused absence, no work for the quarter may be turned in after the close of the marking period. In all instances, the late penalty will be taken off points earned as opposed to total points. Honors-Level Classes HCA offers several honors-level classes for students. This includes classes designated as ‘Honors’ or ‘Dual Credit’. These classes are designed for students who are motivated and equipped to excel at a faster pace and to study topics at a more in-depth level. In order to maintain a sufficient level of rigor, a student must be approved for an honors class by a designated teacher or administrator. Honor Roll Heritage Christian Academy honors those students with outstanding academic achievement at the end of each nine-week grading period. This recognition is given to students in grades 6 –12 who meet the following criteria: ● Honor Roll – A GPA of 3.85
● High Honor Roll – A GPA of 3.95+ ● Principal’s Honor Roll - A GPA of 4.0
