McAuliffe Grading and Homework Policy 1st 6th Grades


1. Grades will be calculated using the following weighted categories: Assessment 50%

Daily Class Work & Quizzes 35% Effort, Engagement & Participation 10% Homework 5%

Grading Scale: 93-100=A,

85-92=B, 77-84=C,

70-76=D,

60-69=F

2. Re-testing Policy- Students may retest after an excused absent note has been turned in. Students with an unexcused absence may re-test with a 10% penalty. 3. Late Work- Formative assessments may include class work, projects, homework, discussions, questioning or other activities. An assignment that is turned in after the due date is considered late work. Teachers may assign no more than a 10% penalty for any late work. EXAMPLE: Johnny turns in a paper five weeks late. He earns an 86 on it. The grade entered in the grade book will be no less than a 76. 4. Missing Work/Homework- When a student fails to turn in an assignment on time, it will be entered into the grade book as missing. Missing assignments are automatically calculated into the average as zeroes. If the work has not been turned in by this time or end of the quarter, the missing work will remain calculated as zeroes in the grade book. 5. Zeroes- Teachers should use a zero in the grade book only if a student actually earned a zero on work turned in. Work not turned in will be entered as zero. 6. Extra credit- Extra credit and bonus questions that extend additional opportunities for learning are encouraged for all students. Only academic work may count towards extra credit.
