Grading and Assessments

Any work from class is able to be revised and re-submitted until the end of the quarter. It is the expectation that students notify Ms. Brooks of re-submitted or late work via email upon submission so that she knows to review and re-grade it.

Homework Policy

I believe that after school students should play, explore, interact, socialize, eat healthy foods, sleep and engage in diverse activities of their personal interest. For this reason, there are no homework assignments for my classes. There is the exception, however, that students may need to make corrections or finish work that they did not complete in class. I try my best to allow enough time in class to complete all of the required work, but if students need more time on projects or assignments they will be given a window of time to complete it outside of class in student support, after school with me, or as homework.

Powerschool Codes

The majority of the work for health is in google classroom. When assignments are graded they will be put into PowerSchool. Grades marked with a blue "incomplete" icon are expected to be finished and re-submitted, grades marked with an orange "missing" icon are expected to be turned in. If a student missed a day of class during which we had a one day assignment they are not expected to complete it and will receive a purple "exempt" code.

Remember, to click on the assignment grade itself, don't just look at the final quarter grade. You can often find out more information about what you need to do to bring up that grade by clicking on it. If you are confused about any of the assignment grades, please talk to me about it in class or email me.
