Grades are updated in genesis regularly. All grades will be a combination of major and minor assignments. When calculating marking period grades minor assessments count as two-thirds (2/3) of the overall grade, and major assessments will count as one-third (1/3) of the overall grade to determine the marking period value. Grading scale and late work polcy is below.
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 due dates for digital work is posted in Google Classroom.
All due dates for paper based work will be told to students and written on the board and stream in Google Classroom
All late assignments will be graded in the following manner.
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 an assignment is still not turned in after the third day, a zero (0) will be posted in the grade book and the assignment will no longer be accepted. The exception to this will be after a parent/teacher meeting has happened.
Parents will be contacted after a child has missed three assignments. After a child has accumulated three zeros in one class, an intervention will be arranged by a guidance counselor.
