Remediation Students are allowed retakes for each and every summative assessment IF they meet established criteria. 1. A score of 86% or lower was earned on the assessment. 2.

There will be a minimum of a 1 week

Remediation The score on a retake will replace the original score, regardless of whether it is higher or lower. Students who are absent on test dates are ineligible for a retake on a test if they do not take it within three full school days (NOT CLASS MEETINGS) of the original administration. If they take longer than that, they will be administered the retake version and limited to a maximum score of 87%.”
