Retake/Redo Policy

Retake/Redo Policy

At all times, it is the students’ responsibility to initiate the retake/redo by completing the retake/redo request form and submitting it to the teacher.


Students will have the opportunity to retake/redo one assessment per quarter (quizzes, tests, projects), per course.

  • A grade of 70 or higher indicates mastery of a concept; therefore, students may only redo/retake one assessment for which mastery was not achieved.

  • The highest score a student may earn on a ReTake/ReDo assessment is 70.


Steps to Retake/Redo an Assessment:

  • Complete the ReTake/ReDo Request Form. A parent signature is REQUIRED for the request to be honored.

  • Attend a minimum of one tutoring session. This MUST be done before the request form is submitted to the teacher.

    • Tutoring is offered after school from 4-5 pm in the Media Center each Monday-Thursday.

    • Peer tutoring can be arranged through Mrs. Arling in the Testing and Tutoring Center.

  • Turn in the ReTake/ReDo Request Form to the teacher.

  • Within 2 weeks of the posted grade, retake the assessment/turn in the redo project on the designated day.

    • Retakes are given before school, after school, or during lunch in the Testing and Tutoring Center.

    • Arrangements for before or after school drop off and pick up are the responsibility of the student and their parents.


Note: Alternate assignments may be required at the teacher’s discretion as some scenarios are difficult to replicate. For example: computer lab assignments, science lab experiments, guest speakers, projects, formal essay, etc.


Example:

Student A scores a 55 on the Unit 1 test.

The student is provided the test score on September 14.

Student A completes the ReTake/ReDo Request Form and submits it to the teacher. Student A has until September 25 to complete the ReTake or to submit the ReDo assessment.
