GRADING


Accountability (15%):
 Accountability includes class preparation, organizational checks
and homework when graded for effort only
 Full credit is received if the homework is well done, fully complete, and turned in on time.
 No partial credit is awarded on homework assignments.
 A homework assignment is considered missed if the homework was not completed or not turned in on the day it was due.
 For every missed homework assignment an informational notice will be sent home with the student detailing the missed work and requiring a parent/guardian signature. The notice must be returned to me with the missing work. NO credit will be given for this work, but you need to learn the skills.

Test & Quizzes (45%):
 Tests will always be announced so that there is ample time to prepare. Please do not wait until the last minute to study!
 Quizzes will NOT always be announced.
 All tests with a grade of a 70% or below MUST be signed and returned by the next day or a detention will be given. For example:
1 day late = 1 detention, 2 days late = 2 detentions, 3 days or more = administrative detention and/or Saturday school.
 If you are absent the day of a test or quiz, you must make-up the work or a zero will be given. Be prepared to make-up the test or quiz on the day you return to school.

Labs, Projects, & Journals (40%):
 Labs and projects include work that is done in class as well as assignments that are completed at home.
