Grading

The students at NDES are graded on the O,S,N scale. The students grade is based mainly on participation. Since participation is such an important part of their grade, wearing gym shoes is very important. If a child forgets their gym shoes they will not participate in gym for that day and will be asked to walk during gym. Since they are not participating their grade will be affected and is explained below:

  • 1st offense = Will not participate and will not affect grade
  • 2nd offense = Will not participate, note home to parents, grade drops from and O to an S
  • 3rd/further offense = Will not participate, grades drops to an N

Please help your child remember their gym shoes.
