The nuts and bolts of how this classroom works.
Grades and Grading:
Grades~
To access grades:
Go to the student or parent portal in FOCUS. This can be accessed by going to the school's website found HERE.
Grading is based on the students knowledge of the subject matter and degree of proficiency of the standard being taught.
Therefore...No extra credit or work will be given.
Do the work...
Therefore, "late" work will be accepted at ANY time. A percentage may be taken off of assignments that are turned in late.
And... retakes of quizzes and tests are allowed. Just set up a time and place to schedule the retake and what you plan on doing to study and prepare better.
Classwork, tests, quizzes and projects are all given a weight depending on length, content and type.
Classwork/Notebook Checks/etc.: 30 %
Tests : 70%
All grades are based on the following district approved scale…
90-100% A
80-89% B
70-79% C
60-69% D
59% and below F
