Grades • Throughout the year, your child will receive a grade based on homework, quizzes, tests, and occasional projects or labs. To keep you informed of your student’s progress, you can log into Infinite Campus. I update grades weekly, however, please note that grades are based on weighted percentages. • If your student drops below a C-, a progress report will be sent home via Infinite Campus mid and end of quarter. If you ever have any questions or would like more information regarding your child’s progress, feel free to email or call me anytime.
