Students have the opportunity to do a retake on summative assessments. The student must demonstrate evidence of new learning. Students do not need to retake the entire assessment; learners should be reassessed on the learning targets they have not demonstrated proficiency on. In lieu of this, no extra credit will be offered.
*Retakes are allowed up to two weeks (14 calendar days) from the end of the quarter in which they were originally administered.
Students are permitted two weeks (14 calendar days) from the end of the quarter to make-up work (at teacher discretion). This is the date that the quarter officially ends. If the work is not completed, all grades not made up may become zeros and the final grade will be calculated using those grades. An Incomplete has the same effect as an F for extra-curricular activities.
