Grades ~ Aim High for Success!

For top grades, turn in your work 100% complete and on time.

Late Work is due the next day. Highest possible grade on late work is a 70.

Make-up Work: It is your job to get the work you have missed, and to check with the teacher.

  • Major Grades 60% (Tests and Projects), Minor Grades 40% of the six weeks grade
  • Grades update online approximately 24 hours after they are entered. Please be patient.
  • Notice a .1 after a grade? It means the assignment was late. (highest possible = 70)
  • Notice a .2 after the grade? The assignment was assigned/done in mandatory tutorials. (highest possible = 65)
  • Notice a .3 after the grade? The assignment was assigned/done in evening school. (highest possible = 60)
  • Notice a .4? The student has received this grade when he/she corrects or retakes a test for a higher grade.
  • Notice a "z" for a grade? This means that your student recieved a zero because even with extra time and evening school, the student chose not to complete or turn in the assignment. This is really not an acceptable choice for your student to be making for work.
  • If you see an asterisk (*) that means that for one reason or the other, the grade has not yet been entered. It could be that there is still time left, or it was a large assignment and I have not yet graded it, or some other reason. Please contact me if you have any questions.
