Math Grading Policy

  • Tests counts 40% 

Tests will be announced at least 2 days in advance. The best way to prepare for tests is by studying the material in your math notebook and by listening in class. 

  • Quizzes counts 25% 

Quizzes will be announced at least 1 day in advance. Quizzes cover less material and are shorter in length than tests.

  • Classwork counts 25% 

Each day, students are to complete daily assignments, record notes in their interactive notebook, practice any concepts learned, or complete other math assignments. Any unfinished classwork is to be completed for homework.

  • Homework counts 10%

Homework may be given periodically. It is expected that if a child does not finish their work in class it is to be finished at home.
