Grading Policy
• Tests (400 – 500 pts):
•
•
You will take 3 – 4 unit
tests and a CFA (10
week test) each quarter
Quizzes (≈ 200pts): You
will take 1 quiz each
week worth 20-50pts
HW (100 pts): HW will
be checked or graded
using a 4 point system
Homework
• Homework will be assigned
•
•
•
•
almost every day
Keep all HW assignments in your
unit folder to use for studying
All assignments must have a
heading
HW provides the opportunity to
independently practice material
that will be on tests and quizzes
Be sure to ask questions on the
HW and get help when you need
it. Use your notes and text book to
help
HW grading
• HW that is checked in will be recorded
using a 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 system
 4: complete, neat, all work shown,
demonstrates understanding
 3: complete, neat, all work shown, but does
not demonstrate understanding or nearly
complete and demonstrates understanding
 2: at least 50% complete and/or correct
 1: incomplete or no work shown
 0: shows very little effort
• HW that is graded will be out of 10 to 20
•
points (graded like tests or quizzes)
No late HW will be accepted for full
credit. HW can be made up with me
during HW Recovery or in HW Hall
Missed HW, Quizzes, Tests
No matter of the reason,
you still must make up the
work within 2 days
• THIS INCLUDES making
up TESTS & Quizzes
• It is your responsibility to
find out what you missed
and get it made up in a
timely manner
• Field trips are not an
excuse…get the work in
advance or that same day
Extra Help
• “Asking for help does not
mean that we are weak or
incompetent. It usually
indicates an advanced level
of honesty and intelligence”
• Wednesday and Thursday
AFTER SCHOOL 2:45 –
3:15
• Help is available in AAC
and ASAP program
