40% - Major Grades such as tests and projects
60% - Daily Assignments including homework as 10%, classwork as 25%, quizzes 25%

Late work
Not completing work on time is a conduct issue. Students who do not turn in homework will receive cuts to their conduct grades. For every 3 assignments that are late, the student’s conduct grade will be cut.

The progression of conduct grades is as follows:
E – Excellent
S – Satisfactory
P – Poor
U – Unsatisfactory

Incomplete:

An incomplete on a report card does make any students participating in extracurricular events ineligible to participate until the incomplete is removed. Any student given an incomplete will be given 1 week from the day that report cards are sent home to complete the missing work. If work is not completed by then, the grade will be calculated with all missing assignments as “0.
