Department Grading PolicySpanish Department Guidelines for Grading Your tests, quizzes, and compositions will be graded on a point system, with the number of points earned out of the total number of points recorded in the gradebook. To calculate your average, add all the top numbers, and then add all the bottom numbers. The resulting fraction, converted to a percentage, will be your basic grade. In addition to tests, quizzes, compositions, reports, etc., you will receive a grade in each of the two following categories: Accountability Attendance Homework Missing required materials Lack of cooperation in group work Obvious lack of preparation Participation General conversational activities Positive contribution to classroom community and climate Class discussion and question and answer situations Asking questions in Spanish Making requests in Spanish Speaking Spanish outside of class The grades for these two categories are added at the end of each quarter.
Honor Code – Academic Integrity Each student is expected to abide by the Honor Code of Regina Dominican High School. Cheating, including plagiarism, on any oral or written assignment, test, quiz, graded classwork or homework will result in a failing grade with no possibility of making it up. The honor code, as well as consequences for academic dishonesty, is detailed in the Student Handbook. |
