Tests, quizzes, classwork, notebooks, homework, participation and special projects will be used to determine grades. Homework is very valuable to help review the skills learned in class. Homework will be counted if completed and points will be taken off for missed or late homework assignments. On most Monday, students will receive all graded work from the previous week in their Monday folder. Students must get their Monday folders signed each week to ensure that parents are aware of their child’s progress in school. Grades are determined based on the following:
Math, Social Studies, and Science:
Tests/Projects 40%
