Grading

Lesson Quizzes 25%
Unit Tests 25%

Semester grade is determined by the three six weeks grades and the semester exam, which counts 20%. Late work will be penalized.

Students may re-do any and all assignments to bring up their grades.

Homework/Classwork

Adequate class time is provided to complete all activities and assignments, and students are expected to do so. Students will rarely, if ever, be assigned homework. If a student needs help, is absent, or has fallen behind, he or she may come to the lab during morning tutorials or check with me about coming after school.

Parent/Teacher Communication

I will use my web site at colorado.region14.net/webs/hammondb/ to communicate and provide updated information. E-mail is a great way to stay in touch with parents. If you have an e-mail address you use regularly, please send me a message at hammondb@ccity.esc14.net.
