Grading

District Grading Scale

89-80 B

79-70 C

69- below F

• Grading is based on a ROLLING AVERAGE. All grades for the year are cumulative. Final Exam and Final Grade for the course will be given at the end of the year. Weighting of homework, participation, quizzes, projects, and tests are determined by the PLC and the teacher.
• Grades will be “frozen” three times throughout the year to get an accurate account of the student progress. 1st nine weeks (October) = Progress Report 1; 2nd nine weeks/1st semester (January) = Progress Report 2; 3rd nine weeks (March) = Progress Report 3; End of year (June) = Final Grade. The Progress Report 2 and the end of year Final Grade will be used for No Pass/No Drive state reporting.

1. Grades should be determined from performances on group work, oral and written selections, performance events, quizzes, labs, class work, projects, and tests.

2. All faculty will reinforce daily performance by incorporating a classroom management strategy that includes beginning class on time, preparation, class participation and on-task behavior.

3. A general outline (syllabus) for each class will be distributed to students at the beginning of each course outlining the subject matter to be covered, supplemental readings and/or recommended readings and any class projects.

4. Teachers will explain the grading system to the students at the beginning of each course.

5. If a student drops a course, it will automatically result in an “F”.
