Grading Policy

Parents are responsible for giving the final grade to their student. Points are
awarded and distributed to the parent by the instructor for the following:

Class Attendance

1) Each class is worth a set number of points. Students are required to attend each
class session.

2) All points are to be awarded if the student is on time. If they are more than 5 minutes
late, they will receive half of those points. They are not penalized if the instructor
starts class late.

3) No points will be awarded if you miss class unless you have an excused absence.
Excused absences are those that are preapproved for family activities or illness. In
the event of an excused absence, they are to receive all attendance points. You
must notify the instructor in writing ahead of time to receive an excused absence.

Assignments

1) Points can be earned in whatever method your instructor chooses for class, including
tests, quizzes, homework, extra credit, etc.

2) Assignments that are turned in over one week late without an extension will result in
a zero for said assignment.

Conduct and Participation

1) Each student will receive conduct points for each day of class attendance. Points will
be awarded for appropriate, safe, and respectful behavior. Unsafe practices with
chemicals, horse play, and any inappropriate class disruptions will result in fewer points
being awarded.
