GRADING PROCEDURES
Any time parents wish for more information about their child's progress they are invited to schedule a conference with the teacher by contacting them directly. the best learning situation occurs when the home and school works together. In order to make grading more consistent, teachers are expected to use the following grading scale. However, all teachers are permitted to use some subjectivity in determining these grades. An "I" indicated that the student has not done or made up all the required work. Work is to be completed within two weeks after report cards are issued, at which time grades will be brought up to date. If any work is not completed by this time, the "I" will become an "F" for the course grade. Students who pass the first nine-weeks grading period and choose to take an "f" for the second nine-week period rather than do the required work, will not be allowed to pass the class for the semester.

B 80%-89% ABOVE AVERAGE
