Grades are earned by each learner, and I will routinely give you progress
reports to let you
know exactly where you are in your pursuit of academic excellence or
you may access the grade book at any time through StudentVue.
Students with a 69% or lower will be sent home with a list of missing
assignments that parents must sign. These students must attend
tutoring before or after school until their score improves.
I will follow the grading scale below to determine your earned grade in

Make-up Assignments
All assignments and notes can be found at our class website
(www.FrazierEnglish.Weebly.com). I can also e-mail copies of this work
upon request. Hard copies of assignments and notes can be found on
the wall with the cabinets. Students should check the absent calendar
for what they missed. Students can also come in before school, after
school, or during lunch to receive help for any assignments they missed.
Students are responsible for making up any notes they missed.
Late, Incomplete, or Missing Assignments:
Students have two weeks from an assignments due date to turn it in for
full credit. After two weeks the assignment will remain a zero in the
grade book. Students can come make up late work before school, after
school, or during lunch. Students can also request extensions on major
assignments if they discuss doing so with me beforehand.
