Math
- Students have a math workbook they use in class and bring home each day.
- Math work should be done in pencil.
- I give quizzes about every other week.
- Grades are posted on parentvue.
- Students have the option and are encouraged to complete test corrections to earn ½ credit back on all quizzes or tests. This is mandatory for students with grades below a C.
★ Test corrections have the following procedure: 1) separate sheet of paper, 2) show
all work, 3) new, correct solution, 4) in words, either explain their error on the test or
describe what they did differently this time). These are due one week after the quiz.
If a student grade is below 75% after corrections they must retake the quiz
until they achieve a 75% or higher.
Science
Students will develop an in-depth understanding of content and develop key skills—communication, collaboration, inquiry, problem solving, and flexibility—that will serve them throughout their educational and professional lives.
