Policies
  • 6th Grade Language Arts: Late work will be accepted two days late for up to 50% credit.  No late credit will be given after two days. The only exception to this rule is the one free late pass which will be given to each student to use during each quarter.  This pass will allow up to full credit on one late assignment during that quarter as long as it is turned in within one week of the original due date.  Unused passes will be collected at the end of each quarter for extra credit points.
  • 6th grade World History: ​Because learning from failure is an essential part of learning, the Social Science department wants to give students multiple opportunities to show mastery of skills and content.  In that vein, students will be allowed to do corrections or redo certain assignments. These specific assignments include: tests, writing, GRAPES (6th grade), and Newselas (8th grade). 

    In order to be eligible for a redo/corrections, the following criteria must be met:
    1- assignment was turned in on time and complete
    2- original work earned less than 70%
    3- student must come in to work with the teacher one-on-one outside of class time before they redo/correct the assignment (this is mandatory)

    The score for the redone/corrected assignment can be bumped up to 75%. This opportunity must be completed within 1 week of the score being posted by the teacher on Aeries.
