  3. Grades(High School policy) 50% Daily work,  homework  and quizzes                          50%     Major assignments, CBAs,   tests, projects   *If a student gets less than 70% on a test, retesting may be requested by a student within one week of a test being returned.* Students will take a final semester exam(one before winter break and one  at the end of the year) *Students will be tested every Friday on the topics we are on for that week or unit. Late policy 1 day = -10 points 2 days = -20 points 3 days = -30 points 4 or more days = -50 points Conference and grade notification You may contact me anytime by phone or e-mail.

If not completed before the end of the nine-weeks grading period, a zero will be recorded. Tutoring Times 3:15-4:15pm Participation Dishonesty policy Participation is one of the most important components of learning a foreign language.  It’s okay to be wrong, but it is not okay to quit, refuse to try, or discourage others from trying.  My goal is to speak Spanish 90% of the time.(EXCEPT FOR INSTRUCTIONS AND IF THERE IS AN ISSUE I NEED TO ADDRESS IN ENGLISH) It is my goal for you to live in Spanish in our classroom; to think, speak, work, converse, and perform in the language. Student receives a zero, parent call made. Use of word by word translators is strictly prohibited. If it is found that a translator is used for any assignment, you will receive a failing score for that assignment.  (EX: GOOGLE TRANSLATE) Please note that a translator and a dictionary are different.
