Scoring:Assignments and activities are scored on points – varying from 3-200. Points are converted to a percentage of points earned and this becomes your grade. Daily homework is stamped and scored as 10, 5, or 0 depending on whether it is completed or not. Late assignments are accepted up to 3 days late and scored at 50% of original score. Assignments over 3 days late or at the end of a marking period are not accepted. Extra credit is given in class at the teacher’s discretion and is meant to enhance student learning on a topic. Students must complete original work before extra credit is accepted. If a test or quiz is failed, see teacher for tutoring and possible re-takes (on some subject matters). If you miss a test or quiz due to an absence, you have one week to make it up – either after school or during advisory, but not during class. Students do not get to keep tests or quizzes or other assessments. If a lab is missed, an alternate reading and writing assignment will be provided on a similar topic; points may be similar or slightly less than the original lab. Medical skills must be made up after school.
