  5. Test Retake Policy • Your child will be allowed a one-time retake test. • Your child must have completed 90% of all assigned homework on time prior to the topic retest. • A retake is required of any student scoring below a 63%. • Additional remediation time is required outside of class. • It is the responsibility of the student to contact me to arrange a retake’s date and time. • Retakes are not offered during regular math class. • The higher score will count toward the quarter grade.

  8. Study Island Study Island is an internet-based remediation and enrichment program for all ages. Each child has a SI account with which to utilize. We use SI to assist with the Everyday Math curriculum, assess learning through benchmark testing, and practice 6th grade math topic assignments. Students have two weeks to complete assignment or an after school “success” day will be scheduled. No exceptions! www.studyisland.com
