 FAQ

Is every assignment used for a grade?
Does my child have the opportunity to correct a failed test grade?
May my child retest if he/she receives a poor grade?

--------------------------------------
 Is every assignment used for a grade?
No. Every assignment is used for a tool of learning or a review for 
learning, but not necessarily a specific grade.  Each assigment is equally 
important to insure the student's success in Language Arts.

 Does my child have the opportunity to correct a failed test grade?
Yes. Tests may be corrected and returned no later than two days after they  
are handed back to the student to receive a better grade.  Students who do 
not pass tests will be required to retest for a possible 100 or correct 
their test to receive up to a 75.

 May my child retest if he/she receives a poor grade?
This is entirely between the student and the teacher and determined on an  
individual basis.  The student is responsible for communicating with the 
teacher his/her desire to retest and reasons for the retest.  A retest will 
not always be guaranteed.
