It is this final project; as well as, the presentation and class critique that will be summatively assessed. Students will be provided the criteria for the project that corresponds with the grading criteria at the start of each project.Minimum: A minimum grade of 50% will be given for all assignments or assessments for which the student made a good faith effort, as determined by the teacher. If a student does no work on an assignment or assessment, the teacher shall assign a grade of zero. No grades of between 0% and 49% will be recorded in the gradebook.Parent Notification:Parents will be notified at least three weeks prior to the end of a marking period if a student is currently earning a failing grade. At any time, parents may check parentconnect. to see their student’s grade. Please contact the AHS counseling office if you do not already have a login. Late Work:Please endeavor to turn all work in when due. If you have a reason that the work must be late please email me. Students are expected to complete assignments, in full, to the best of his/her ability and students should take advantage of tutoring and reteaching opportunities so that the student can submit his/her best work. Late assignments are penalized 10% for each day it is late up until five school days (not A/B days). After five school days, the assignment becomes a zero and may not be submitted for a grade. When a student is absent, it is the student’s responsibility to get the make-up work. The student will be allotted the same number of days equal to the number of days absent to make-up work.Opportunity for Mastery/Redo’s:Consistent with Anne Arundel County Board of Education policy on grading, students who have not yet met mastery standards shall have one additional opportunity to improve their scores on a minimum of 3 and no more than 5 assignments of their choosing with the exception of homework, some multi-component research papers/projects, quarterly assessments, and assignments due during the last week of the marking period. Teacher facilitated re-teaching is recommended before a student uses his or her opportunities for mastery (re-do) but is not required. Students must complete and submit re-do assignments within 10 school days of receiving returned original graded work and the highest score earned will be recorded. For re-dos, the teacher may elect to create an alternative assessment that measures student mastery of the same content standards. After an opportunity to re-do for mastery has been submitted, the higher grade will be the grade of record.All student re-teaching will take place after school Tuesdays please endeavor to schedule this meeting in advance so that we both are prepared.Attendance/Tardiness:IF YOU ARE ABSENT, PLEASE CONTACT Ms.Bennett at kmbennett1@ to receive your make up work.
