In addition to these expectations, we will also abide by the policies and rules set by the district. If you choose not to adhere to the rules, the consequences will be as follows:

1st offense – Warning
2nd offense - You will write the expectation you broke 100 times and turn it in to me the next day.
3rd offense – You will serve a 20-minute after school detention the next day.
4th offense – You will be sent to the principal’s office.

Grading Policy:

6 weeks test – 25%
Unit tests - 30%
Daily work/ Homework – 35%
Quizzes – 10%
Note: Semester Exam counts as 1/4 of your semester grade.

You will be required to maintain a notebook consisting of class rules, notes, math chart, assignments and any other handouts you are given. The notebook will count as a quiz grade each six weeks. I do give retests. You must take your retest during lunch or after school with in one week of the original test. The maximum grade on a retest will be 80.

You may not work on any other assignments in my class unless you have completed your math. If you do, the assignment will be taken up.

You are assigned your homework in class. All assignments are due at the beginning of class the following day unless otherwise noted. If your assignment is not completed, you will stay for after school tutorials that day. The following deductions will apply when homework is late:

• If you turn in the assignment by 4:30 the day it is due, the highest grade you can make is a 90.

• If you turn in the assignment the next day in class, the highest grade you can make is an 80.

• If you turn in the assignment two days after it is due, the highest grade you can make is a 70.

• Anything after that time, the highest grade you can make is a 50.

• Taking a 0 is not acceptable. You will attend tutorials until the assignment is completed.

If you do not show your work or do not do your assignment in pencil, you will be required to redo the assignment. The late homework policy will apply.

Absences:

If you have an excused absence from class, you will have one day for each day you miss to complete any missed work. After that, the homework policy will apply.
