Notes:
1. Homework will be denoted on this page as well as the board. Students will be reminded daily. It is recommended that they write it down and/or view the school webpage and/or Canvas daily.
2.AR Incentive: Firstly, AR is OPTIONAL & EXTRA CREDIT.
The incentive is detailed as follows: Students may take a minimum of 7 AR test at Reading Level 5.0 or higher. To receive the corresponding grade (100%), students must score NO LOWER than 60% on each test. Once students take a minimum of 7 AR test, they will receive an extra 100% TEST GRADE.
In total for meeting the incentive in FULL, students will receive SEVEN 100 daily grades + ONE 100 test grade.
Students that take 1-6 AR test at a Reading Level of 5.0 or higher and score NO LOWER than 60% on each test will still receive the daily grades but not the test grade for completing the incentive. The daily grades will NOT apply to the Creative Writing class; however, the test grade will be applied as an extra credit grade in that section.
3. SchoolStatus Broadcasts will begin going out weekly (usually Monday-Tuesday) this week. If you respond to this broadcast, no one else sees your response except me.
4. Grades in Active Student + Parent should be updated by Monday afternoon/evening.
