Reassessment Policy

Reassessments will be offered to all students after each assessment. Reassessments will only include standards that were not mastered on the assessment. A reassessment contract will be given to the student desiring to reassess that will include activities and other assignments that also may require reteaching time after school. Reassessments must be completed prior to the next assessment, otherwise the opportunity to reassess will no longer be offered. The highest grade to achieve on a reassessment will be a 90.
