Absolutely right. Then, they go to the teacher, the day before the 6 or 9 weeks ends and want to make up work. I have literally stayed up all night to grade because of situations like this. I don't do it anymore. I close it off the day before the last week of the grading period, except for current work.My goodness, we didn't do this back when I graduated in '87
That's ridiculous. How does a kid flunk out unless he just flat refuses to do any work?
It has gotten absurd.
