Grading Policy

Every subject will have a minimum of 12 grades per six weeks.

Test grades go down in the grade book twice on a point system, but in Math we count Test grades 50% , fact quizes 10% and daily work 40% on a percentage system.

Absences:

Student will have the exact number of days to turn in make-up work as days absent.

Late Work:

Work turned in late will be 10 points off per day.  After 3 days their grade becomes a zero. 

Homework:

Homework is turned in promptly as the student comes in the room each morning.  We understand that everyone has a bad day once in a while, therefore we will give your child one excused homework pass a semester. They will however have to complete the forgotten homework at recess that day.   The second time the student will serve lunch detention.  For every infraction thereafter the student will serve AFTER SCHOOL detention.  Second semester starts anew.

Handwriting grades:  Student will receive a letter on handwriting, but grades will be recorded as number grades in the grade book.  The music teacher and PE teacher may also be using  a letter system.
