7th grade Texas History Grading Policy
2009-2010 School Year
Texas History students are graded using a raw point system. Each student will be provided with pages in their ISN that they can use to help track their assignments and grades. A Table of Contents is posted in our classroom listing assignments and point possible. This information is also available on my website. Parents and students can use RRISD Home Access Center to view current grades.
