Relearning and Reassessing

 Relearning and Reassessment allow students the opportunity to demonstrate competency, promote student reflection and growth, and provide for reteaching and relearning of challenging material.  Reassessment provides and encourages student self-advocacy and ownership of their learning. 

For students to be eligible to reassess, they must make a reasonable, good faith attempt to complete the assessment by the due date or have communicated with their teacher to provide an excused reason for needing extended time.  Depending on the assessment, students may only be required to reassess specific learning targets rather than the entire assessment.  In some cases, there may be assessments later in the unit or semester for the student to demonstrate the learning target and no reassessment is necessary after the relearning.

Formative or Summative Assessments - 

• 1 or NE - Students must reassess formative and summative work to demonstrate learning and teacher will work with them to develop a remediation plan

• 2 or 3 - Students may reassess for learning by requesting to meet with the teacher within or the teacher may direct the student to meet and develop a remediation plan

• Remediation plans must be assigned within 4 school days of the assessment being posted in PowerSchool

• In any reassessment, the higher grade will be recorded

Remediation Plans are used to communicate clear expectations for relearning and remediation agreed upon by the student and teacher. Certain assessments may not need to be reassessed if there are ample future opportunities within the semester for the students to demonstrate competency.  However, reteaching and relearning may be required prior to the next assessment. Remediation plans will include:

• The specific learning targets to be remediated

• Support or reteaching from the teacher

• The tasks the student needs to complete for relearning 

• How the student will demonstrate the remediated learning

• The scheduled date for completion which must be completed within 2 weeks of the original result posted in TeacherEase.

• Communication to parents
