This page has a link to create a new parent or student account if needed.GRADING GUIDELINES:
SUMMATIVE 60% - unit tests, major projects, vocabulary quizzes,
FORMATIVE 30% - vocabulary products per unit (google slides, journals, DCAs, etc), activities, mini-assessments
DAILY 10% - classwork, homework, participation grades
CHECKING GRADES- Please refer to HAC for your grade. Schoology will not reflect your true grade. Please check for grade comments in HAC. I will usually post a comment for any failing grades, or exceptional work.
Retests - Retest will be allowed for test or quiz grades under a 70. Students have five school days from the time they receive grades to retest. Retests will be done tutoring times. Students must have completed their vocabulary activity, and do test corrections during tutoring times before retaking assessments. Students will have 5 school days from when test and quiz grades are posted to Home Access to complete a retake.
Late Grades- Students will be deducted 10 points on the first day, and 5 points every day after for late work. No work will be accepted past 10 days of its due date, or after the end of a Unit. Students must fill out the Return to Assignment form in order for late work to be graded. Any work that is of low quality, or partially incomplete may be considered incomplete. Please notify me via email if your student is struggling with something that is preventing them from getting their work done.
Grading- I grade and update retests, retakes, late work, and make-up assignments in Home Access approximately once a week, NOT DAILY. You must fill out the “Return to Assignment” google form linked at the top of our Schoology class to let me know that I should go back to grade retakes/retests/make ups.
ABSENCE MAKEUP WORK - Students who are absent will be given the same number of days as the number of days as the absence to make-up the work.
Late Grades- Students will be deducted 10 points on the first day, and 5 points every day after for late work. No work will be accepted past 10 days of its due date, or after the end of a Unit. Students must fill out the Return to Assignment form in order for late work to be graded. Any work that is of low quality, or partially incomplete may be considered incomplete. Please notify me via email if your student is struggling with something that is preventing them from getting their work done.
Incomplete Work- Incomplete work will have a grade of a 0 until turned in. You have 10 school days to complete it before the final grade of a 0 is applied. Any work that is turned in, but is either of low quality, or partially complete, may be considered incomplete. If completed work is unsubmitted by me, then you have only one more submission to complete that work again.
Return to Assignment form- You must submit the “Return to Assignment” google form at the top of our Schoology class to let me know that I should go back to grade late work and redos. Once I have already graded an assignment, it is YOUR responsibility to let me know by filling it out. I will return to that assignment or assessment grade once you have notified me that you have a submission pending.
Health Concerns- I take your students mental and physical health very seriously. If your student is struggling in my class due to any of those concerns please notify me as soon as possible.
