Classroom Policies

Classroom Policies
Mrs. Scanlin-Math

Welcome back to school!  I am very excited to be working with the wonderful 
staff and students at SRCS.  Below I have summarized a few classroom 
policies. Please read through them with your child and then return the bottom 
portion with both signatures.  I look forward to a successful and enriched 
year.  Go Guardians!

Grading:  Each quarter grade will be calculated by the following criteria.
50% Tests/Projects
30% Quizzes/Graded Classroom Assignments
20% Homework

Homework:  Expect math homework to be assigned each day.  Homework will be 
given credit based upon completion.  Incomplete work may be turned in the 
following school day at ½ credit.  Students start each quarter with 100% for 
the homework portion of their grade.  Each missed assignment will deduct 2 
points from that score.  All assignments, quizzes, tests and projects will be 
posted in the classroom and on my class web-page.  Students are responsible 
for recording each day’s work.  Any project/take home assignment turned in 
late will have 15 points deducted per day until turned in.  

Tests/Quizzes:  Students are required to correct all graded work 
(tests/quizzes) on a separate sheet of paper and get them signed by a parent 
within 2 days of receiving the paper.  Corrections/signature will count as a 
homework assignment.

Bonus Work:  Typically each week 2 bonus worksheets are available.  Points 
given range between 1 to 3.  Students have one week to complete 
(independently) and turn in the work.  The points may be added to any quiz 
grade taken in the current  quarter.  A grade may not increase more than one 
letter grade and each quiz may not be changed more than once.  

Additional Resources:  Students will receive a user name/password to access 
the online companion to our textbook series.  This includes an online text, 
practice lessons and tutorials.  I will offer after school tutorials to 
students that need the additional support.  Also, remediation will be 
available during lunch/recess on a day to day basis.  Please let me know 
asap, if your child needs any additional help.
