Update to educational policies in Google Classroom

Update to educational policies

Funding for education has been drastically reduced due to the shortfalls in state revenue. The administration has been forced to consider alternative funding sources.

Therefore a new policy is in immediate effect. Each student in social studies classes will be required to pay for all photocopied, pdf. or materials provided by their teacher. You will also pay an admission fee to my zoom meet of $2.50 for each session you attend.

Any student who does not pay the 10 cent copy fee will receive a zero for the assignment. If they do not pay the zoom meet entry fee, they will be marked absent for the day.

While this may seem a burden, it is absolutely necessary. We must all work together to solve this temporary financial problem.
