[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just out of curiosity -

Was the due date AND deadline stated on the project directions?  Is the deadline just assumed to be the last day of the marking period?[/quote]

Both the due date and the deadline were:
Written in 16 pt font on the assignment sheet and the rubric.
Posted on the Edline calendar 
On the Google classroom Feed
At the top of the first slide of the Promethean flipchart every class for 2 weeks

If the student assumed the deadline is the last day of the quarter (this Friday), he'd have ignored written and verbal reminders that it is not. He knows today was the day I would change the Z to a 0. I've emailed him and the parents multiple times. He and I spoke in class several times. I offered to help at lunch. I offered the contact info for a high school student who helps out after school. Nada.

I wish this was the only non-responsive parent. I've whittled my list down to five who I can't get any reply from. Back in the day, my grandmother did home visits at 8 pm. I wish I had her moxie.[/quote]
