                    *Your grade is based on a point scale:    Total points earned x 100 = ______% grade

                                                                                     Total points possible

      

                    Note: Grades are based on tests, quizzes, labs, homework, and class work. You may earn bonus points, but there are no extra credit projects. If you miss the opportunity to earn bonus points because of being absent from class for any reason you may not make it up, and will have to wait for another opportunity.

    You must take your make-ups within five (5) school days of the original exam date. All make up exams will not include any bonus point questions. After five school days beyond the original test date, you will not be allowed to make up any missed tests, quizzes, labs, or class work. Make-up work will be graded after all on-time work and will, therefore, take somewhat longer for me to complete and return to you.

      

    Assignments: Include name, date, class, period, and name of assignment.
