Go to www.sachem.edu. Click on Curriculum & Instruction on the left side. Click on Health/Physical Education. Click on Health Education. Click on Student Resources. Click on 6th Grade.

Gum is not allowed in school at all. *If you are absent at any time, it is your responsibility to get notes from a classmate. If you borrow a classmate's notes before lunch on the day that you return, you will be able to copy them during lunch and will not fall further behind.

If you try your hardest and turn your homework in on time and COMPLETELY done , you will maintain that 100%. Your homework should not contain any blank answers.

If your homework is turned in one day late, you will get 50% for that assignment. If it is more than one day late, you will receive a 0 for that assignment. It is very easy to keep the 100% homework average! After School Extra Help ends at 3:17. You may arrange for your parent to pick you up at 3:20 or take the late bus home.
