In order to support student mastery of skills and standards, all students will be permitted to retake one (1) major assessment per nine weeks in each class that we refer as "Take Twos". Students will be required to participate in a reteach lesson to support mastery prior to completing their retake assessment. Any student that fails a major assessment will be required to complete a reteach lesson for each major assessment failed. Retake assessments will typically occur between the 7th and 8th week of the grading period. Retake dates will be announced one week prior by the teacher and will occur during class. The highest grade will be awarded to the student and entered into the gradebook. Unique situations will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Student work missed due to absence is to be made up after the student returns to school. It is the student's responsibility to request missing work from each teacher. A maximum of 5 school days is allowed for make-up work due to any absence.
Work not handed in by the due date will be coded as "NHI" in the gradebook. NHI codes will be replaced with the GFA (Grade Floor) for any work not turned in by the sixth day past the due date.
