Assessment - Algebra 1
An assessment can not be taken until all assignments are completed for that section with at least an 80%.
Assessment Retesting- Algebra 1 and Statistics
Students can redo all Assessments by the deadline date (10 days after they receive it). In order to redo a Assessment the student must complete an INTERVENTION assignment with at least an 80% and ALL assignments with a score of at least 80%. Change in grade: the redo will be for full credit.
When a student is absent, he/she is responsible for the work missed. A student that has been absent is responsible for picking up their work the day they come back to school. A student has 1 day for every day they were absent to get the work turned in. Students will need to ask someone in their group or the teacher for any notes or explanation that was missed. If a student was absent due to an extra-curricular event then their assignment is due before they leave. If it is turned in after, it is considered late. If a student has not made arrangements with me when the assignment is late they will be assigned a detention to finish their work. If students misses an assessment they will need to make it up outside of class time (after school).
