Grading Policy: Grades will be calculated as follows:
Homework:
Homework Passes:
- Tests/Quizzes– 90%
- Other – 10%-This includes work that is checked in for completion.
Homework:
- Homework will be given Monday-Friday. Students will have time to begin the assignment in class. Each homework assignment is worth 10 points. The entire assignment must be completed with work shown in order to receive the 10 points. If it is not complete, a zero will be given. It is necessary to practice the homework problems in order to do well on quizzes and tests. Homework will not be accepted late nor will one be able to go back to his or her locker to get an assignment.
Homework Passes:
- Twenty-five paws will be accepted, at the teacher’s discretion, to use on a given homework assignment. Using a homework pass will exempt you from the assignment; therefore it will not alter your grade. Homework passes may not be used on work that is given out by a substitute. Please remember it is necessary to practice the skills taught in class in order to be successful on quizzes and tests.
