SOCIAL STUDIES
Dear Parents:
It is a great pleasure to start a
new school year 2012-2013, and work together towards the academic and personal
achievement of your child (en).
In 6th to 12th grades, the
Grading Policy to be used is
described as follows:
Homework ………………………………… 10%
Projects and
Presentations…………………. 20%
Research…………………………………… 10%
Quizzes…………………………………….. 20%
Class work…………………………………. 40%
100%
This is the explanation of the
aspects to be evaluated:
Homework: will be an extension of the work the students will do in
class and need to master at home.
Projects and Presentations: will involve any activity the students
will need to accomplish a task following the school’s philosophy in a certain
period of time (what the teacher considers appropriate)
Research: will consist on navigating in internet or visiting the
library to get the necessary information asked by the teacher of a topic and
present it in a written report, a Power Point Presentation or any other source
to prove levels of knowledge.
Quizzes: will be applied
at the end of each unit to check understanding and feedback will be given by
the teacher afterwards.
Class work: will be any activity done in class, in accordance with
the school’s philosophy (hands-on methodology)
The evaluation does not involve
effort, behavior and attendance, since it is merely academic achievement based
on Course Standards, however the students may lose the right to present either
of the aspects mentioned above with out a valid excuse (medical, personal
etc.). This grading policy will be applicable to every subject of the study
plan.
Late work: It is very important to clarify that each aspect of the
grading policy has to be turned in on time, however if the student does not
present his/her work on time voluntarily will have consequences in his/ her
grades as follows:
The first day of late work will
be for granted (the student will still be evaluated with the total worth), the
second day the due work (Homework, Projects and Presentations and Research) 5%
will be deducted from the total worth. The third day of late work 10% will be
deducted from the final worth. The following days of late work will not be
taken into consideration for summative evaluation and will have to present
his/her work anyways. Please take note of this important information for the
benefit of your child’s (en’s) academic performance.
Yours Truly,
