Grading Policy

 

You’ll begin the semester with an A and are expected to maintain that A all semester long.

How?

Easy: Try your best, don’t give up, learn from your mistakes, and play by the rules.

That’s all there is to it.

No homework. No tests. No final exams. No loopholes. No tricks.

You’ll also earn your choice of perks for maintaining that A.

 

Perks

At each four-week grading window you’ll earn an opportunity to choose one perk.

  • 20% Time Creative Freedom every Monday (silver days). Repeatable for Tuesdays, Wednesdays, etc.
  • 1 Homework Passes* If you need a day off to study for another class. Repeatable.

If your grade falls to a C, you need to learn from and correct your mistakes—right now, or…

 

Are You Kidding Me?

What part of you need to learn from and correct your mistakes—right now is hard to understand?

If your grade falls to a D, you’re in danger of losing computer privileges. Make better choices or…

 

Who Are You?

Parents, guidance, and VP have been notified of your willful defiance.

When your grade falls to an F, you are in imminent danger of removal from our class.

 

Any Questions?

Persistent, consistent effort in a collaborative, self-paced, student-centered learning environment leads to the highest level of success a student can achieve in a given subject.

The quality of your work is not a factor so long as you’re maintaining an A.

If you don’t give up, your work will continue to improve.

Patience, Grasshopper, give it time and your work will shine.
