Ms. K does not allow redos or retakes of minor assignments unless the student has submitted ALL major assignments.
La Sra. K no permite rehacer o retomar tareas menores a menos que el estudiante haya presentado TODAS las tareas principales.
Redo Policy
Students are permitted to redo any major assignment that receives a grade below a "C."
Students who fail major assignments will be required to redo the assignment.
Students have to have turned an assignment in on time to be eligible for a full point redo.
Students may not redo classwork assignments. However, students may complete additional practice assignments (after school or during lunch) to recoup lost points.
Retake Policy
Students who are absent on the day that a quiz or exam is given are responsible for coordinating with the instructor to schedule a make up day.
Students who receive a quiz or test grade below a "C" will be permitted to complete "Golden Mistake Corrections" in order to recoup points on their quiz or test.
Reteach Policy
Students who are absent are responsible for learning missed content through videos posted by the instructor in Google Classroom.
The instructor will reteach students struggling with content and concepts in a small group setting as needed. However, students need to have made a genuine effort to learn materials the first time it was taught to qualify for small group interventions. Students who do not meet this requirement will be assigned to Bulldogs Tutoring.
