Grading Policy:
60% of your grade will come from tests and quizzes

40% of your grade comes from classwork and


homework (will be graded on accuracy or
completion depending on the assignment)

Be sure to keep up with your grades by checking


FOCUS at least once per week.

All ESE/504 accommodations are provided within


the classroom.
Homework: You should expect homework on a daily basis. Often times homework will be assigned on
Monday and due Friday. This helps students manage academics and extracurricular
activities.

No late work accepted under most circumstances! Please try to have students
communicate with me before I receive a parent email or call. Our goal is to build student
ownership of work.

Academic Apps: Instruction in this course will include multiple modes of content delivery and review,
including student access to online applications such as Quizizz, Kahoot, or EdPuzzle.

Make-up work: All assignments are posted on the calendar on my website. If possible, you should try to
make up work at home or by coming in before school upon return to school. Make-up
work is entirely your responsibility! You have 2 days for every day absent to make up
work following an excused absence.

Extra Help: Monday and Friday mornings at 9 AM. No pass is needed, but you must knock on my
window to be admitted into the building.

Test Re-takes: Extra points may be earned back by completing test corrections. This policy applies only
to unit or chapter tests and will be explained in detail once the first test is returned to
students.

Behavioral Expectations: 1) Arrive to class on time with all needed materials.


2) Show respect at all times to faculty, staff, and classmates.

3) Take responsibility for your own work, including make-up work.

4) Abide by al LCSB and Swift Creek guidelines.
