Homework:

Traditional written "homework" is given on an "as needed" basis. Most written work that may need to be completed at home is unfinished classwork (See Google Classroom for extra worksheet copies or instructions for assignments).

However, students are asked to review their notes DAILY so they are prepared to ask questions as we learn rather than wait to study the night before an assessment when it may be too late to get assistance. We are learning a lot of information in a short time period. It is easier to remember when topics are reviewed in small chunks a little each night.

Assessments and Reassessments:

Students that earn below an 80 on a Summative assessment must retest within two weeks of the original grade being posted. However, to be eligible for a retake they must show evidence of further study on the material. Reassessments are not permitted for formative assignments.
