All assignments are graded based upon 100 percent. All posted grades in Option C reflect the percentage earned on the assignment or assessment. 

Some assignments are graded on a 4 point scale. The following outlines the percentage points for each number: 

4 point scale: 

4= 96-100 %

3+= 95%

3= 90%

2+ = 85%

2 = 80%

1+ = 75%

1= 70%

If your child is going to be absent, please call the school and leave a message or send an email to your child’s homeroom teacher.  When your child returns to school, please send an absent note or email. 

When a student is absent, it is their responsibility to check the absent folder in each class upon return to school. 

It is also the responsibility of the student to ensure that all make up work is completed within a timely manner. Students who do not complete assignments on time will have points deducted. Assignments not completed within two weeks are given a final 50% grade. 

Due dates for projects and graded assignments must be met.  Each day that a graded assignment is late, points will be deducted from the final grade as determined by the teacher.  Students who are absent on the due date must hand the assignment in upon returning to school.  

Students will be given no more than 2 weeks from the due date to turn in any late assignments. After this, the assignment will be given 50% on that particular assignment.  Three missed/late homework assignments for a teacher will result in a demerit.

Part of being a Junior High student is working on developing time-management skills.  There will be homework every night.  Some of the homework will be given on a nightly basis, which means it will be due the next day, while others may be “longer-term” assignments.  With these assignments, it is important that students get into the habit of working a little each night in order to reduce stress and produce quality work.  On nights when there is no written homework, it is expected that the students use the time for studying.

Reminder: Three missed/late homework assignments for a teacher will result in a demerit.

Important information, as well as homework assignments, upcoming tests, project due dates, etc. will be posted in the Google Classroom of the teacher for that subject.  It is important that students check all of their teachers’ classrooms for work due.
