Redo/Retake Policy:


Greer Middle School Redo/Retake Policy:


Greer Middle School is implementing a Redo/Retake Plan as a strategy to help ensure the

mastery of content for our students and encourage our students to have a growth mindset

regarding their academic work. Mastery is considered 80 percent or higher. Our guidelines for a

redo/retake plan have been designed with input from teachers, administrators, parents, and

students to ensure consistent implementation school-wide.

When are students allowed to redo/retake?

- Only assignments that are categorized as major grades in the gradebook are available

for redo/retake.


Redo/Retake Information

- The student, parent, and teacher must sign Redo/Retake Request Form

- The student must submit the Redo/Retake Request Form within three (3) school days of

the grades being posted in Backpack.

- The higher of the two grades will be recorded in the Gradebook.

- Redo/Retake assessments will cover the same standards, but the format and questions

will be determined by the teacher. Alternative assignments may be required at the

teacher’s discretion.


Redo/Retake Steps

- The student must complete and submit the Redo/Retake Request Form (found under

Student tab on Greer Middle Website) within three (3) school days of the grades being

posted in Backpack.

- Students must complete the Relearning Tasks assigned by their teacher on the

Redo/Retake Request Form by the deadline given by the teacher.

- If student will be retaking a test, they must take it at the pre-arranged date/time; if

student will be redoing an assignment that it is not a test, they must turn it in by the redo

deadline.

- If students miss the deadline and/or pre-arranged date/time, the redo/retake will

not be allowed. If there are extenuating circumstances, contact the grade-level administrator.
