Elementary Retest/Redo Guidelines
EIA (Local): The District shall permit a student who meets the criteria detailed in the grading guidelines a reasonable opportunity to redo an assignment or retake a test for which the student received a failing grade.
The following criteria should guide retest/redo practices.
- A student may have three opportunities each nine weeks to redo assignments/major grades for which the student earned a grade of 69 or below.
- If the campus weights grades, the three opportunities will include one major and two daily grades.
- If campus does not weight grades, the opportunities will include any three assignments
- The highest grade a student can earn on a “retake or redo” will be a 70. A student may not earn a grade lower than the original grade. A 0.1 will be entered into the gradebook with the make up grade to reflect that the assignment was a "make up" grade.
- Student should have the number of days equal to the number of days missed to complete the make up work.
- Students shall receive a zero for any assignment or test not made up within the allotted time.
- DPMs or Benchmarks are not included in the retest/redo opportunities.
