Policies

__** Homework Policy: **__ * All students are expected to complete their homework. When students are in Homebase (end of day), planners are monitored, but not checked daily due to the short amount of time. Students have access to their grades through PowerSchool (internet site) at school, home / local library. To instill good study skills, students are **strongly encouraged** to monitor their homework and grades a few times each week. __** Grading Policy: **__ *Students in Language Arts class are expected to demonstrate their understanding of the content with a minimum of 80% accuracy or better. If a student does not meet this criteria, corrections, retakes, or extra practice are required.


 * A zero will be entered in the grade book for all missing work. Once the work in turned in, it will be graded.

=__**Extra Credit:**__=
 * There will be (a few) extra credit opportunities throughout the school year. All extra credit will be collected, but not graded until the last week of the quarter. I will only count extra credit it __ALL required work__ is in. If a student earned a zero on an assignment, I will not count the extra credit until the assigned work is turned in for that quarter.
