Redo/Retake Policy

RMS Redo/Retake Policy

In pursuit of giving students the opportunity to demonstrate mastery in accordance with a growth

mindset, Riverside Middle School has set forth the following redo/retake policy:

● Students or their guardians may request one opportunity to redo each major grade. Students/parents must submit their request for a redo/retake within one school week of the graded assessment being returned.

● Before an assessment is redone/retaken, students must complete a re-learning opportunity as determined by the teacher and agreed upon through a documented discussion between the teacher, student, and/or guardian.

● The retake score will replace the original score whether or not it is higher than the original score.

● Students may not request a redo/retake on work handed in late.

● Re-learning opportunities may include independent learning tasks, review activities, before or after school tutoring with a teacher, Flex time remediation, or other activities deemed appropriate by the teacher.

● Minor assessments may be redone/retaken at the discretion of the teacher, in order to support learning.
