Grading Policy:

Moore Square Magnet Middle’s Grading Policy

Wake County Public School System is committed to maintaining rigorous performance and achievement standards for all students and to providing a fair and consistent process for evaluating and reporting student progress that is understandable to students and their parents and relevant for instructional purposes.

Grading will be a school based system with all teachers using the following guidelines:

-Grading Percentages in PowerSchool - Teachers will be calculating grades using the following percentages:

-60% - Assessments, Quizzes, Projects, Etc.

-40% - Classwork and homework

Late Policy - Students are expected to submit work according to the teacher's deadline. In cases of missed classes due to an absence or other factors, a student will have a three day extension from the assigned due date to complete any missing assignments for full credit. Assignments not completed within the allotted time will remain a 0 in the grade book.  Teachers will be updating grades weekly.

* Students that repeatedly request an extension will be subject to ALC and/or meeting with an administrator about an action plan. 

Ex. Teacher enters the grades for a classwork assignment on August 4th.  Student did not turn in the assignment and has a 0. The student has the opportunity to complete the assignment by August 7th for full credit. If the assignment is not completed by August 7th, the student’s grade will remain a 0. 

Test Corrections- Test corrections are encouraged for all major assessments.  Students will have 4 school days to complete test corrections.   Students will receive half of the points added to the original grade for each corrected response. There will be variations to this policy based on teacher expectations for individual assessments - examples: explanations of work process, refined performance, noticeable edits to written work, etc.
