GRADING POLICY
Pep Squad is a 7th period class which means a grade is kept throughout the duration of the school year.
Each day students earn 7 points for attendance.
Each absence, excused AND unexcused, is a loss of 7 points.
An absence in which the pep squad advisor, Coach Sami, is not notified of with at least 2 hours notice will result in the loss of double points (14 points.)
An absence in which the pep squad advisor, Coach Sami, is not notified of at all is a loss of triple points (21 points) and these points cannot be made up.
Points can be made up by running laps. Each lap around the track is worth 7 points.
Other extra credit opportunities are sometimes available if coaching staff is in need of assistance with tasks such as clean up, storage room runs, etc.
Grading begins on the first day of summer practice.
It is the student's responsibility to coordinate make-up points with the pep squad advisor for their desired grade.
