5th Grade Grading Policy 2019-2020
We will grade students on a variety of assessments including, homework (some are formative), tests, group work, participation and projects. Students know that they need to be active participants in any group work and turn in quality work in order to earn total possible points.
Please check the school portal for student progress reports and grades. School’s Portal (https://cccparish.eduk12.net/login)
If your child is absent, it is not always possible to do the exact work we did in class. We cannot replicate the support we give in a lesson and hand over work at the end of the day and expect your child to do it without any class discussion or interaction with either peers or teacher. Education is more than just the grade on a report card, it's an experience that happens at school. In instances where they need to make up work, we will do our best to give them a substitute assignment to complete on their own and turn back in.
If your student forgot to do their homework or receives work back to fix, they will have one week to redo and turn back to their teacher. Occasionally, students will be given the opportunity to fix and sign their quizzes or tests. A student can earn up to 90% for that quiz or test. We are trying to help our students to be intrinsically motivated to increase their grade on their own. All work must be turned in before the end of the quarter.
Missing homework-each student will need to turn in their missing homework within a week of its original due date. Students are responsible for their homework.
No extra credit is given.
These guidelines will help your student be organized, responsible and have a great 5th grade year!
