Course Description- US Government and Politics
The AP U.S. Government and Politics course is designed to provide a traditional, college level course and will give students an analytical perspective on government and politics in the United States. This course will emulate the academic rigor of a college-level course, while including the study of both the general concepts used to interpret U.S. politics and the analysis of specific examples. Throughout this course, students will examine and analyze the Constitution of the United States, including federalism, political parties and the behavior of citizens, interest groups, and the mass media, as well as gaining a familiarity with the institutions, processes, beliefs, and policies that constitute U.S. politics. Students will use higher order thinking skills to formulate solid opinions and interpret the various trends throughout politics and our society, and the importance of participation in local, state, and national government. Upon completion of this course, it is expected that students will take the Advanced Placement examination.
Course Description- Macroeconomics
Macroeconomics is the study of the business cycle, productivity, national prosperity, unemployment, price levels, and policies which attempt to control the interconnected economy. This subject uses various models to explain and describe how the economy works as a system. The study of economics is a useful tool to aid in student understanding of wages and personal finance, government policies on the economy, and the increasingly interdependent world of international finance and trade. The short-term goal of this course is to aid student understanding of those concepts tested in the AP Exam in Macroeconomics. Taking the AP Macroeconomics Exam and other AP exams can translate into financial savings on post-secondary education. The vast majority of colleges and universities in the US and many outside the US, grant either academic credit, advanced placement, or both, to incoming students with qualifying AP grades.
Course Requirements
1. Students are required to attend class prepared to participate in discussions. The course is discussion-based and is designed to promote analytical study of issues. This will require extra effort on the student’s part to complete out of class reading and class assignments. AP courses tend to require more reading than most.
2. Keep a notebook containing class notes, study questions, and handouts.
3. Turn in all assignments on the due date. Failure to do so will result in a letter grade deduction per day the assignment is late.
Skill Requirements:
Upon completion of the AP Macroeconomics course, students will have acquired the following skills:
1. Understanding and manipulating technical information, graphs and charts
2. Examining major issues affecting world economies
3. Applying theoretical concepts to real-world situations
4. Analyzing economic problems and communicating results, graphically, verbally, and in writing.
5. Proposing and assessing solutions to economic issues
Attendance
Attendance is very important to successful completion of the course. Students who miss class often will quickly jeopardize chances for both good grades in the course and successful AP Exam grades. Students should make a sincere commitment to be in class. Attendance is one of the items that a teacher is legally responsible for, so cutting or skipping while you are under my care is strictly enforced and will result in a referral immediately the next day.
Evaluation
Academic Grades issued will be based on the following scale:
Work = Frequency = Weighting
Classwork Given as necessary 1 Grade
Homework Every day 1 Grade
Quizzes Appx. 1/week 1-2 Grades
Tests Appx. 1/ Topic 4 grades
Special Projects Appx. 1-2/year 5- 6 grades
Mid-Term 1/year 10% of Final Grade
Final 1/year 10% of Final Grade
Grading Scale
A – 100% to 90% 4.00 to 3.50
B – 89% to 80% 3.49 to 2.50
C – 79% to 70% 2.49 to 1.50
D – 69% to 60% 1.49 to 1.00
F – Below 60% below 1.00
Grading Procedures
1. Work not turned in will be given a zero in the gradebook and also impacts the effort grade. (Potential Senoritis Victims please pay attention)
2. If a student is absent, it is his/her responsibility to obtain the work missed and consult with the teacher regarding the due date of the missed assignment.
3. Unsatisfactory absences over the permitted amount (1 credit classes=10/year; .5 credit classes=5/year) will result in the student receiving a NC grade. I held up credits of 4 seniors last year, so pay attention to this part!
4. One letter grade will be deducted for each day an assignment is late.
5. Note that the Grading scale is subject to change pending a school board ruling on the application of plusses and minuses.
Effort Grade:
A student’s effort grade will be based on the following: absences, tardiness, preparation for class, efficient use of class time, and making up work missed work.
Conduct Grade:
Adhere to the classroom rules of conduct at all times. Failure to do so will result in a lower conduct grade.
Additional Testing Requirements
Note that all chapter tests will contain an AP Essay or essay of equivalent difficulty. This essay will require the student to include a correct analysis of information regarding the structure and nature of the US Government, or correct interpretation of charts and data regarding political trends and voting trends in the United States. These essays are necessary as they comprise 50% of the AP US Government and Politics exam grade. These problems will require the student to emphasize the line of reasoning, facts, and logic to receive full credit.
Expectations for student behavior
1. Follow instructions the first time they are given. Insubordination, defiance, disrupting the class, or failure to comply with instructions is not acceptable.
2. Unless instructed, remain in your assigned seat at all times. If you need to do leave this seat for some reason, ask for permission.
3. Please finish all food and drinks during lunch, not in the classroom.
4. Stay on task at all times. If you finish the current task early, you are to find something productive to work on while the class catches up, or until the exercise is completed. (see rules 1 and 6)
5. Please refrain from talking while the instructor is talking or while a fellow student is trying to concentrate on work.
6. It is expected that grooming and sleeping is to be done at home or on your own time, not in class
7. Dishonesty or cheating will result in an automatic zero on an assignment.
8. Defacing, breaking, or stealing school equipment will result in a fine for the property or a referral to school administrators for disciplinary action.
9. Please do not use vulgar language or profanity. This will result in a referral as you are disturbing the learning environment of the class.
10. I have a Bring Your Own Device policy as does Coral Reef. DEVICES ARE TO BE USED FOR CLASS PURPOSES ONLY! If a student is caught using his cell phone/ tablet/watch for other classes and or non academic purposes, a referral will be written to the administration as the student is in defiance of school authority. I will review this policy on day one of every class as well. Please be mindful of this policy as it is ZERO TOLERANCE . (Note to parents: Please do not call or text your child during school hours as this sends a mixed message regarding this rule and will only result in wasted time for you and your child. If you must reach your child immediately, please contact the school office.)
All other school expectations outlined in the student handbook apply.
All other school expectations outlined in the student handbook apply.
Procedures for non-instructional routines
1. Instructions will be given at the beginning of class daily.
2. Sharpen pencils at the beginning of class or after initial instruction.
3. Attendance will be checked daily.
4. Students must have a pass from the teacher to leave class. One person at a time is permitted.
5. The school tardy policy will be followed.
6. During fire drills, hurricane/tornado drills, bomb threats, or school lock-down, students will follow the school procedures accordingly and adhere to the instructions given by the teacher. (as outlined in the handbook).
7. Work areas should be left neat and clean.
8. Excessive restroom usage, or excessive time in the restroom will be considered skipping and result in a referral.
9. If a substitute is instructing all assignment grades and class penalties will be doubled. No late assignments will be accepted from anyone who did not have an excused absence from school (I went to Mr. Blah’s room is not acceptable- only an excused absence or pre-approved school function is acceptable in this case.)

Final Exam-Good Luck
5 Important notes: (Please read before signing!)
1. We are practicing all year for students to have a chance to pass the Advanced Placement test. If a proctor reports to me that a student puts their head down without making a legitimate attempt on any section of this exam this is treated as the most important assignment of the year and will affect their ACADEMIC grade. It is grounds for a GRADE OVERRIDE to an F for that 9 weeks regardless of where that student currently stands academically. Depending on the earlier grade this could have graduation implications.
2. During the review month right before the AP exams there will be multiple test weight assignments in any given week. This has the potential to impact a student’s grade significantly, both positively and negatively, as the tests are geared toward a student’s ability to get a 3 on the AP exam. As we will be reviewing for 2 AP tests, any test given whether Government or Macroeconomics will count toward their current semester grade regardless of the subject the student is currently in. . Note that if a student is not able to demonstrate proficiency on these exams they constitute a significant portion of the student’s academic grade and could impact graduation.
3. Essays and free response questions are a major component of the AP exam. One of the best practices given by the college board is for students to exchange papers and grade each other so they are prepared for the procedures that the college board uses when grading their test at the end of the year. This will increase the likelihood of them passing the exam. I use this strategy extensively in my class, however if a student ever disputes the grade they received they can appeal to me and I will reexamine the paper and revise the grade up or down accordingly.
4. As a former coach, I realize that extracurricular activities and academy activities are important. However, your PRIMARY responsibility is to be in class at all times. If there is a school approved field trip and we get an email from activities saying to release you, you must go. PLEASE do not ask to be released for anything other than an official school administration (not teacher) sanctioned activity for which your sponsor has submitted the proper paperwork. “my sponsor says we need to practice because such and such activity is coming up” or “I’m in X club and I have to leave early to set up for blah” is unacceptable. IF YOU ARE ABSENT FROM CLASS WITHOUT PRIOR PERMISSION FROM ME, YOU WILL BE GIVEN A REFERRAL.
5. Given that we teach two courses for two AP exams, and it is challenging to finish content instruction before the tests, at the instructors discretion we may begin a course early or give assessments for AP Econ during the end of AP Government and vice versa- (see #2) Please take note of this now as it could impact a student’s academic grade. This is done to ensure we have enough time to cover content and review content at the end of the course to maximize your ability to pass both tests.

Testing Grade override policy.
All,
In an effort to allow each student every opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge, we will be immediately instituting an AP testing override policy. This can possibly apply to any student who gets a grade that did not accurately reflect their ability on the test based upon the results of the AP exam. This policy will apply to all students in every grade in my class. Note- This can only help you- The opposite is not true where a student comes in with an A and fails the AP test-as long as they put in a legitimate effort. (As per my syllabus, a students can be failed for the 9 weeks regardless of grade if they fall asleep without putting forth a legitimate effort on the exam)
The policy is as follows.
Student who has a B and gets a 5 can be overridden to an A
Student who has a C and gets a 3 or 4 can be overridden to a B if they get a 5 to an A
Student who has a D or an F and gets a 3 can be overridden to a C
4 can be overridden to a B
5 can be overridden to an A.
I am excited about this new policy as it will provide an incentive for students to work and study all the way through the test regardless of academic standing, and enables those students who possibly slacked off at any point during the year to recover academically through hard work and effort. I think it also perfectly aligns all parties (school, parent, teacher, and student) to pursue the same ultimate goal, which is to pass the advanced placement tests and receive college credit.
Thank you very much for reading this addendum to the syllabus.
