Grades

Your child’s overall grade will consist of scores from tests, class assignments,

home learning assignments, projects, notebook checks, composition entries, current events and class participation.

Students will be informed of the weight of each assignment when given the instructions and requirements. Tests and projects will be weighted more heavily, and will usually count as two to three grades, in the overall average.

No late work will be accepted! Missing assignments will result in an automatic zero. I look forward to a terrific school year and am excited about the opportunity to teach

your child. Please feel free to e-mail or call me with questions and/or concerns.

Thank you,Ms.
