Grading

  • Grading

    According to WCPSS School Board Policy, the purpose of a grading system is to appropriately and consistently measure and communicate a student's level of mastery.  Course Grades are comprised of classroom activities, assignments, and tests/quizzes.  Students should expect to review notes and activities, finish work, or read outside of class.  

    Assignments will be classified as one of the three types of grades.  Grade Types and weights:

     

    Major Assessments:  30% 

    Minor Assessments: 60%

    Formative Assessments: 10%

     

    We understand that feedback to students is critical, so teachers update PowerSchool with grades within one week of the student submission date.
