The quarter grade for each subject is determined by averaging grades (Based on the student’s progress in performing on functioning level):
1/3 = participation / effort
1/3 = classwork
1/3 = tests / projects

A…90 – 100%

C…70 – 79%
D…60 – 69%
F…00 – 59%

N… Needs Improvement (Elementary- some subjects)
I… Incomplete
Grades “A-F” are assigned on the basis of individual academic progress. Incomplete grades may be issued to students whose work is not complete because of absences or other extenuating circumstances. Incomplete grades “I” must be made up by the next grading period. Each teacher will determine exact due dates for make-up work based on individual situations.
Any grade can be improved by additional work assignments successfully completed within 3 weeks after the grading period. Students who fail the final grading period may be required to attend summer school to receive course credit.
Summer School and tutoring are also available.
