The student's nine-week grade will be calculated as follows: ? 80% will be determined at the professional discretion of the teacher and may include participation. Teachers utilizing class participation as a partial grade determinant shall notify students at the beginning of each semester. ? The remaining 20% will be the student's grade on the nine-week exam or equivalent. ? Each nine-week grade will count 50% of the semester grade. ? If an EOC is administered and counts for 30% of the final year long grade, the final grade will not be calculated until the score is released by the Florida DOE.

Grading for Semester Averages

1st Semester 50%

PROGRESS REPORTS Since parents receive only (4) formal report cards a year, it is necessary that they know the progress of their child each mid-term marking period. All students will receive a progress report during the mid-term of each nine weeks. This is done with progress reports made out no later than the fifth week of each marking period.
