[quote=Anonymous]This is pretty school-specific.  You'll want to find out the local rules.

At our HS, last year, there were intermittent deadlines--I think three per quarter.  And kids could be late and get full credit up to that deadline.

This year, they got rid of that system and are back to more old fashioned due dates.  (Due on assigned date unless sick.)

So this is a moving target.  I'd suggest you reach out to the teacher to get more information.

We gave big punishment to our kid a couple of years ago because she was constantly late submitting for a particular class (the grades would turn up in Canvas as zeroes and be changed later once she submitted the asssignment).  We later found out she was telling us the true policy.  (When I contacted the teacher mid-year, she told me how the kid was doing just GREAT in her class.)  I stand by punishing because dd knew our house rules were to turn things in regardless of the school's rules.  But I might not have been so harsh if I realized that she was getting really mixed signals from me versus her teacher--I think the teacher was possibly even encouraging kids to take longer if they felt stress, etc.[/quote]
