In order to succeed for this upcoming year and better prepare you for your middle school career, your 6C teachers are emphasizing certain expectations and behaviors both in and out of the classroom.
Grading
You are able to retake tests/quizzes if they earn lower than a 70%. If your grade on the retake is a 75% or above, your new grade will be a 75%. You may retake a quiz or test by making an appointment either before or after school. Furthermore, you need to fill out a “Request to Retest” form, which includes a parent or guardian signature. If you do not complete the form, you cannot retake the quiz or test. You have one week from the day the quiz or test is returned; after that time period, you cannot retake the quiz or test.
Note: Not all quizzes or tests can be retaken - it is the teacher’s option or choice to do so.
Homework
For homework assignments that are not passed in or later than one day, you will earn no credit.
If you are absent, it is your responsibility to find out what assignments you have missed. Ask a classmate, check your period’s Google Classroom page, or check out the "Homework" section of this website. Students will have the number of days absent plus one to complete the work missed due to an absence (if you are absent Monday, work is due on Thursday).
Being absent does not mean you do not have to do the work you missed - you still have to make up your work.
Behavior
Show everyone in the room the respect they deserve. Disrespect will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Follow the school rules and use your best judgment.
Do not leave your seat unless you have asked to do so. Whether you are grabbing a pass, a tissue, sharpening a pencil - it is distracting to both the teacher and your classmates. Do not get up just to talk to your friends - that is rude.
Keep your hands off others at all times - both in class and in the hallways. Failure to follow this rule will result in lunch sessions, after-school sessions, and/or more significant consequences from the office.
Use your locker break wisely. If you come to class unprepared, you will not be allowed to go to or return to your locker. If you come to class late and without a pass, you will be given a lunch session.
