Grading  Policy

​The students are assessed based on their academic progress and their classroom behavior.  Accordingly, besides the academic grade the students also receive cooperation grade for every quarter of the four-quarter academic year. The cooperation grade reflects a student’s behavior and work habits in the classroom.  Therefore, the cooperation grade is assigned based on the number of violations committed relative to the “Classroom Rules” section of this handbook. 
Academic and cooperation grades are reported through the official report card. Parents also can follow the progress of the grades through MMS, the on-line grading software program.  Kindergarten students receive report cards on a semester basis.   

Quarter Grade
Tests and quizzes            50-70 %
Homework                       10-15 %
Projects, labs, etc.           10-15 %
Class participation           10-15 %

​Class Ranking
 
Class ranking is computed only for grade 5 and it is based solely on students’ academic grades.
 
Test/Quiz Policy
 
Students take at least TWO tests and two quizzes per class or course per quarter.  Two to four quizzes may be counted as one test.  No more than two tests are scheduled on the same day.  The test scheduled last will be automatically dropped. Scheduled quizzes are considered equivalent to daily homework.
 
Test/Quiz Make-Up
 
Students with excused absences shall have the opportunity to complete missed class work and make up all tests receiving full credit. The student is responsible to arrange for the make-up.
 
Students who miss a test/quiz because of an unexcused absence will receive a failing grade on that test/quiz, except when the teacher decides to offer the chance for make-up. If a student misses a test/quiz while on suspension, he/she will not have the opportunity to make up the test/quiz and will receive an "F".
 
Grade Adjustment
 
The report card grades assigned to students are final.  In the event a grade is in dispute, a student must petition the teacher and upon the consent of the principal, the grade may be adjusted.
 
Cheating
 
Acts of cheating or plagiarism will result in student receiving an “F” on the test or the assigned work.
 
Academic Pink Slip
 
All students earn cooperation grades for their study habits and behavior patterns. A student may receive an Academic Pink Slip for the following reasons:
·         Missing three homework assignments within 10 school days
·         Three incomplete homework assignments within 10 school days
·         Being repeatedly unprepared for classroom work
After receiving three pink slips, parent(s) will be contacted for a meeting with the teachers and the academic advisor. In addition, the student will lose points from their homework grade, thus affecting the overall academic grade.
 
Library
 
The library is a resource center to meet the academic and intellectual needs of every student. The librarian and the teachers assist students to find the books appropriate for their needs and interests. The students visit the library once every two weeks.  They have the opportunity to borrow books of interest to read for leisure. Checked -out books must be returned to the library within two weeks. Parents are responsible for lost or damaged books.
