All student work will be comprised of major assessments (tests and projects) and minor assessments (homework and classwork). All student work will receive a numerical value.
All submitted student work will receive a minimum score of 50, unless determined by the teacher that little or no effort was made by the student, in which case a lower numerical mark may be given and recorded.
If an assignment is turned in one day late, the grade will be lowered 5 points.
If an assignment is turned in two days late, the grade will be lowered 10 points.
If an assignment is turned in three days late, the grade will be lowered 15 points; however, the lowest grade that will be posted in the grade book is a 50.
If a student does not turn in the assignment after the third day, a zero (0) is posted in the grade book.
The numerical average of major and minor assignments will be graded according to the following scale:
A+ = 98-100 A = 95-97 A- = 92-94
B+ = 89-91 B = 86-88 B- = 83-85
C+ = 80-82 C = 77-79 C- = 74-76
D+ = 71-73 D = 68-70 D- = 65-67
F = 64 and Below
(A mark of 65 or higher shall constitute a passing mark.)
In addition to the scale above, the following marks may also appear on the report card:
P Pass
I Incomplete
E Withdrawn, failing
J Withdrawn, passing
L Loss of Credit
X Probation
Plagiarism - any work that is plagiarized will result in a grade of 0. For the first plagiarism offense a meeting with guidance, the teacher and the student will take place. The parent/guardian will be notified and it will be expected that the assignment be redone; however, the highest value to be earned after plagiarism is a 74. If there are subsequent offenses of plagiarism there will be a meeting with the parent/guardian and the assignment will receive a 0.
Finally, any situation involving cheating will result in a mark of zero (0).
