Evaluation This is a college preparatory course, so there is a test at the end of
each chapter or unit. A comprehensive final exam will be given in June.
Grading Tests/quizzes are 75% of your marking period grade; Labs, Projects and
homework total to 25%.
Homework Please plan on a minimum of 30 minutes of homework each night.
Materials/Policies (continued)
Clinic Students must make an appointment via email. I am available for AM
and PM clinic. Conduct
Students are expected to treat others with respect and follow all rules outlined in the student handbook.
Absences Find out what was missed when you were absent and complete it
within a period equal to the length you were out. Check the “bin” for missed worksheets. If you are out during a test day, you must take the test after school on the day you return. Failure to make up work in the allotted time results in a zero. Labs must be made up within one week from absence. ID tests, next day back in class.
Cheating Cheating is copying of someone’s work and representing it as your
own. Plagiarism is a form of cheating.

Assessments CR School District recognizes the need for regular student
assessment. Assessment can take many forms: class work, homework, reports, projects, student writing, student performance, quizzes, teacher-developed tests, department/district tests, mid-term and final exams, and standardized tests.
Teachers will provide the opportunity to review assessments in a classroom setting. After this review, students are encouraged to share the responsibility for their own learning by taking advantage of the following methods of preparing for future assessments: clinic, resources posted on the teacher’s web site and distributed in class, self -monitoring through academic notebooks, logs, or charting that records areas mastered and those in need of review.
When appropriate, teachers will return assessments to students; however, for reasons of test integrity, not all assessments will be sent home. Parents may always schedule an appointment with the teacher to review assessments.
