Ms. Petnuch’s Rules and Expectations:  

Each student is expected to arrive at class on time every day. There will be a short grace period. After that, students will be marked late. If you must miss class, please contact me so that I can send you the day’s information. You are responsible for completing any work you missed while absent.  

Ms Petnuch’s Grading Policy: 

Participation/ Homework 15% 

Quizzes/ Short Reading Responses 20% 

Essays 30% 

Tests 35% 

You will be expected to participate in class every day. Multiple absences or lack of participation will result in a lowered grade.  

Late homework will not be accepted, except for those who have missed class. 

IF you know you are going to miss a test day, please let me know beforehand so that accommodations can be made.  

Extra credit will be given on a case-by-case basis and is available for those who are struggling throughout the semester. 

We will be working with Microsoft Teams, Remind, and Turn It In. Assignments will be made available through Teams. Please do not send me completed assignments by email.  

*Please do not reach out to me using any other email than your Yonkers public school email. It will not be accepted through google docs, any iCloud/Gmail accounts. If you are using docs, you must save the document as a PDF, and then submit it to teams.  

I will always be available to answer any questions/concerns through email at 

Npetnuch@yonkerspublicschools.org 

I am so thrilled to be working with you this year, 

Ms. Petnuch
