Central Intermediate School has a school wide assignment policy. Classroom tests and assessments will have different guidelines as determined by the teacher. All assignments are expected to be turned in consistently and on time. All classroom assignments will fit into the following criteria:
Assignment Corrections
All assignments can be corrected up to 100%. Students will not be able to correct assessments/tests or projects.
It is at the teacher’s discretion for how long students will have to make corrections on a particular assignment. This may vary based on the type of assignment and work required.
Students may be requested to complete a variation of the assignment, so that it is an accurate depiction of the student’s understanding.
Incomplete Assignments
If an assignment is not turned in 100% completed to the teacher’s expectations, it will be returned to the student and called “incomplete.”
A student will receive a one-time 10% deduction from the assignment grade for the assignment not being 100% complete when it was due.
Missing Assignments
An assignment that is not turned in on the date it is due will be considered “missing”.
If an assignment is “missing”, students must turn it in by the third day or it may result in a zero. The only exception to this rule is for students that have an excused absence.
A student will receive a one-time 10% deduction from the assignment grade.
Students may not be allowed to correct “missing” assignments.
P.A.S.S. (Providing Academic Support Systems)
Tiered intervention/support system to help with assignment completion
All incomplete/missing assignments will be logged on the P.A.S.S. sheet, which each homeroom teacher will track.
Non-academic assignments/forms/parent signatures will not count as incomplete or missing assignments.
An incomplete/missing log sheet will be attached in each student’s planner. Parents, students, and teachers will be required to sign when an assignment is logged.
There is a reflection form that will be completed at each step.
P.A.S.S. Steps
Step 1: Student reflection after three incomplete/missing assignments.
Step 2: Teacher/student reflection after six incomplete/missing assignments.
Step 3: Parent/teacher/student reflection during meeting after nine incomplete/missing assignments.
