Reading, Language, and Spelling tests will be given on day six of the pacing guide.  

Math, Science, and Social Studies tests will be given upon completion of each chapter and /or unit.   Grades will always be calculated using the ratio 60% major grades to 40% minor grades.  However, the categories listed below each ratio are subject to change each grading period.  Each subject will have a minimum of 5 major grades and 10 minor grades.   

Make-up Work

Make up work will be placed in a folder and put in a make-up work box.  It is the responsibility of the student to make up all work within three days of the absence.  If a student has an unexcused absence, a score of 0 will be recorded for each missed assignment.

The TOC is a tool used to organize your child’s notebook.  Each assignment will be an entry in the TOC. It must be organized correctly in order to receive credit for your work.
