Assignments/Grades
Students may be assigned daily work and it may not be put in the grade book. They are still expected to complete the work that has been assigned. If they do not they will be required to attend chief time, spend time before or after school and/or academic lunch to get caught up on work. All students work will be completed by the due date. Any work that is not turned in by the due date will receive a zero. Students will be allowed to retake exams. Students will also be allowed to redo projects for a lesser percentage of grade. Please look at infinite campus to see what your grade really is. The WEN grade may not be the correct grade you are earning.
Exam Retakes
All students who earn a F or D on an exam will be required to retake an exam. Students will be allowed to take an exam up to a total of 2 times. The original time with one retake. Before a student can retake an exam they need to email the teacher to request the retake. They will have to demonstrate that they have no gained enough competencies to have the retake. The student will have 5 days to retake the exam from the day it was put in the grade book.
Technology
All of our assignments this year will be through the WEN program. Students are encouraged to bring in their own technology into the classroom. If they are unable to have their own computer one will be provided to them by the district. Students that are using their own devices are expected to be on task and using the device only for the assigned purpose. If a student is not using the device for approved purposes it will be taken and they will be referred to the office.
Cellphones
Cellphones are not to be used in the classroom at all. They are to remain in the students’ book bag or locker. If a student is seen with a phone or in possession of a phone they will be written up for a violation of the student handbook.
ZOOM Meetings
If a student is not at school that day they are expected to attend zoom meetings. If a student is not at the meeting they will be marked absent. If they are late to the start of the meeting for class they will be marked tardy.
