Tests will be given over each chapter and will be announced beforehand. Some chapters will include a mid-chapter test. Quizzes may or may not be announced. Quiz Corrections/Exam Retakes: If students would like to improve their quiz/test scores, students may submit quiz corrections to potentially earn ½ point back per missed question. Students must complete quiz corrections within one week of the quizzes being returned. Additionally, students must staple their original test to the back of the quiz corrections. * Exam retakes may be given at the teacher’s discretion
• It is the student’s responsibility to check on any work that was missed during an absence. • Students will have the same number of days as they work absent to complete the work, otherwise it will be considered late . • Any quizzes missed during an absence must be made up within a week of returning to school
*Late work will be accepted for partial credit within 2 weeks of date assigned.
• As a team, we will issue interim grade reports on the 3rd and 8th week of each quarter. •
