All student work will consist of major assessments (tests and projects) and minor assessments (homework and classwork). All student work will receive a numerical value.
The value assigned to numerical marks shall be as follows:
92-100 Performance significantly above curriculum standard
83-91 Performance above curriculum standard
74-82 Performance at curriculum standard
65-73 Performance below curriculum standard
64 or below Performance significantly below curriculum standard (failure)
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 work is not submitted the value earned will be a 0.
Furthermore, when calculating marking period grades minor assessments will count as two-thirds (2/3)of the grade value and major assessments will count as one-third (1/3) of the marking period grade value.
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E - Withdrawn, failing
J - Withdrawn, passing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 follow the following:
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.
Subsequent offenses of plagiarism will require 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)
