Grading Procedures

Tests

Test dates will be written in the student agenda and in Dojo class updates.If a student is absent the day of the test, it will be made up on the first day back. Tests (major grades) count for 60% of their final grade.
 
Quizzes
Quizzes will given in order to prepare your child for tests. If a student scores below 70% on a quiz they will be given an option to retake the quiz. Students who make below 70% will be retaught and given a 2nd quiz to show their growth. Quizzes will count for 40% of their final grade.
