Yeah, you are. You are what's wrong with this country's educational system. All of your students should know what to do when they are absent and you should care if they don't know the material. You've failed at your job.

If it's a minority - you're screwed. Better give them the points if they are anything other than "white".

Ignore the bitch arse responses claiming you should be patting this kid on the arse to make sure they do what they are supposed to. Your job is to teach the material in a way that is conducive to learning the material. If a student doesn't understand the material, then sure, either help that student or tell them how they can go about finding the correct answers or methods that may best suit them. It's not to be fricking Mr Carter and babysitting kids who don't come to class and making sure they don't jump off the roof. A student, ESPECIALLY a senior, should damn well know that when they aren't in class, they need to find out what material was covered that day, and if they don't understand it, come to you with questions. Not wait two weeks, take the test, and then not answer the questions about that section when they were absent because they were too damn lazy to even ask what was covered. frick em, and the bitches on here claiming it is your job to chase this kid down and tell them what you did that day, or sacrifice the progress of other students by having to recover that section another day during class to make sure the absent student learnt it gud.

your school has a policy on such things, follow it.

Just do what your peers are doing and bang your student.

The section I'm referring to is a 6 question section on Factor by grouping and it's a senior level high school math class.
My wife is a math teacher. Reading this post makes me appreciate how good she is at her job and how much she cares. She wouldn't have given any credit for it, but she also wouldn't have let it upset her even a little bit, much less feel the need to go online to share.
Maybe you should have chosen a different profession.

Holy shite he must be teaching a bunch of dummies.
If you are teaching factoring by grouping (looked this up), finding GCF, then this shite is fricking trivial at best.
8x^3 + 4x^2 + 2x
GCF is 2x
2x(4x^2 + 2x + 1)
That's all they have to do????

Put "If you don't care about your grade then I guess not. See you next year!" F---

It also could be the student wanting to put something/some explaination for the zero credit answer rather than not giving a slightest frick and just leaving it blank.
But if course, like too many HS teachers, the possibility is completely ignored for the sake of drama and making it all about you.

LOL!
Feel bad if you don't know 2 divides into 8,4, and 2.

A good teacher would have helped the kid when he came back to school. It's your to teach not to judge.
