Grading 70% = Summative Assessments (tests, projects, and papers) 30%=Formative Assessments (homework, activities, and quizzes)

Retesting Retesting: Teachers have the discretion to provide remediation opportunities for summative assessments for all students, including but not limited to: test corrections, tutorials, and/or test retakes

Late Work Late work is not acceptable, however I understand that things do happen. If you know you will be turning in an assignment late, you must communicate that to the instructor BEFORE the assignment is due. I will decide on a case by case basis if your work will be accepted, and if there will be a point deduction.

Tutorials Tutorials are available from 6:45-7:10 am and from 2:45-3:15 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and by appointment
