The Hoover math department will be using a combination of Standards-based and traditional grading. Students will be assessed on their effort and accuracy on practice activities and their ability to master specific mathematical standards, using a rubric that incorporates the percentage grades used at the middle school level (as opposed to 0-4 in elementary). Grades will be found in ParentVUE/StudentVUE.
The rubric and criteria by which I will be determining grades can be found below. If you see a 0% in Parentvue, this indicates that the student did not complete the assignment, or they turned it in empty.
LLATE WORK is highly discouraged as it loses its educational value when a student can’t review their answers with the class. Students who do not have their homework completed, will be expected to complete it during the class review time.
Maximum possible scores for late work will decrease as the year progresses:
Quarter 1: 69% Quarters 2, 3, & 4: 50%
Exceptions will be given for family emergencies, etc… if the teacher is notified of the situation by a parent/guardian via email or Google Voice text.
