Student Performance Plan
On Monday of each week each student receives $75 Sage Computer Science Cash. Each student is responsible for their cash through the week.
Each student exhibiting good classroom behavior and participation receives an additional $5 per day. On Fridays the students have the opportunity to place their weekly cash into a Savings Account. Students receive a weekly performance grade for the amount of cash they place into their savings account at the end of each week. $100 = 100%.
Students infringing on classroom rules are required to pay for their offenses. Following is a list of infractions and respective payments.
$5 for each offense:
- Excessive talking out of turn.
- Distractions to other students or self distraction.
- Failure to use keyboard covers (cheating).
- Use of the restrooms or drinking fountain during class time.
- Lack of class participation.
$10 for each offense:
- Use of inappropriate language (exclamations involving bodily functions or religious connotations).
- Unauthorized use of computer games.
- Unauthorized use of the computers.
- Teacher disrespect.
Students failing to deposit at least $60 dollars at the end of a week receive a failing performance grade. This grade warrants teacher contact with parents by email, text, or a phone call. Successive failures warrant a teacher / parent conference or an office referral. Students falling into debt in any one week receive an office referral.
This plan introduces students to a system of performance evaluation similar to a workplace environment.
