Changing High School Grade if the student deserves it to be changed

When a teacher gives you six weeks to complete an assignment, you are probably going to need a note from a doctor to claim sickness to get out of turning it in on time. And the fact that you managed to get to school that same day to take a math test mitigates your claim of being too sick to function.

I would have at least had a parent check in with the teacher in question ahead of the deadline and ask if there were any other options for turning in the assignment later.

Chalk this up to “lesson learned” and work ahead on your next long-term assignment.
