Any student with one or more grades of “incomplete” will have three weeks to make up the work needed to change this to a passing grade. After this time, the incomplete will automatically be changed to a failing grade. When incomplete grades are the result of extended absences due to chronic illness, accidents, or health related problems, the student may appeal to the principal for an extension to make up the incomplete grade(s).
