Grading NO STANDARDS BASED GRADING! This year we will use traditional numerical grades based on a 10 point scale: A = 90 to 100 % B =  80 to 89% C = 70 to 79%   D = 60 to 69%   F = 0 - 59% Honor Roll will be awarded at the end of each quarter. This will include ”All A” and ” A/B” Honor Roll.

Conferences Will be scheduled with Homeroom teachers for the end of the quarter. We would like students to attend, if available, to share their goals and progress. Teachers will send an email to sign up in a few weeks. You may contact content teachers to conference on an as needed basis.
