Windsor Charter Academy’s administrative team made revisions to two grading procedures in our handbook this year. The purpose of these changes is to ensure consistency among all high school courses, give students opportunities to improve their grades, and to enhance communication with parents.
Late Work Procedures Revision Summary
Students will receive two late tickets per semester for all courses.
Work turned in with a late ticket will be given full earned credit.
Students with an excused absence will set a timeline with the instructor for submitting missing work.
***There are Aims Community College policies within specific departments that differ from this procedure. For instance, students cannot make up labs or speeches.
Gradebook Protocol Revision Summary
From the time the teacher enters an assignment in Infinite Campus and until 2 days after the assignment is due it can show up as ___ (Blank). Within 2 days of the due date, the assignment should have one of the following:
Turned in (T)
Missing (M)
Numerical Grade
Teachers then have 3 more days to enter a numerical grade once it has been turned in.
Teachers will enter in an “M” for any missing assignments, including missed assignments when a student was absent. (This will send an email to the parent indicating that there is a missing assignment).
***Some exceptions will be made for more grading-intensive assignments.
