Grading Policy
The grade book will have the same grading weight in each subject. All tests in each subject will combine to weigh 40% of the final grade for each subject. Quizzes will combine to weigh 30%, project, activities, and daily work 20% and all homework 10%
40% Tests
30% Quizzes
20% Projects, Activities, Daily Work
10% Homework
When a student misses an assignment, that assignment must be turned in within the week. When turned in within the week due, 10% will be taken off of the grade for that assignment.
When the assignment is not turned in within the first week, it is marked as an 0 in gradebook.
Once the assignment becomes an “0”, it cannot be changed.
An “M” is considered a zero and can remain an “M” for the duration of the trimester. This shows both parents and teachers why grades may become lowered due to missing assignments.
An “E” for excused may be used in instances where the student was excused from an absence and missed a Science Lab or an Art project that would be impossible to make up. Using an “E” will excuse the student from the assignment without affecting the grade.
