Grading
Grading
At Roosevelt Middle School, grades are intended to accurately communicate what students know and are able to do. Students are encouraged to learn from feedback, improve their understanding of course standards, and demonstrate growth through reassessment opportunities.
SC Grading Scale Nine-Week Grade Breakdown
A = 90 - 100 Major Grades – 60%
B = 80 - 89 Minor Grades – 40%
C = 70 - 79
D = 60 - 69
F = 0 - 59 (Below 60)
REPORT CARDS and PROGRESS REPORTS
Parents will have grades communicated to them every four and one-half (4½) weeks throughout the school year through official school-generated interim reports, and at nine weeks with official report cards. For students who are not passing, parents should receive a Powerschool report between the interim report and the report card. All reports should be signed by the parent or legal guardian and returned to the homeroom teacher. Parents will receive automated phone, text, and e-mail messages regarding the dissemination of grade reports. Parents/legal guardians can request access to monitor their student's grades by signing up for PowerSchool.
Reassessment
Students have opportunities to demonstrate improved learning on major assessments.
Any student may reassess a major assessment after completing teacher-required preparation or remediation.
Students earning below 60% on a major assessment are required to participate in reassessment.
Students must complete all missing assignments for the instructional unit before reassessment.
Reassessments should be completed before the end of the following instructional unit whenever possible.
Major projects may be revised when permitted by the teacher.
