Curriculum
Grading Each 9 weeks will be similar. There will be at least 11 daily grades and 4 major grades. One low daily grade from the first 4 ½ weeks will be dropped at progress report time and another low daily grade will be dropped for the second 4 ½ weeks. Schoology Most assignments will be given on http://gpisd.schoology.com. Parents can get a parent log in to see what their student is doing in class and download any assignments. The due dates are listed for the assignments and should be taken seriously. Students have to read assignments carefully and complete assignments to the specifications given.
Due Dates and Late Work Due dates given in Schoology or in class are nonnegotiable. After the due date and time, all assignments will be penalized points. If the assignment is turned in within the following week, they will receive 30 points off of their calculated grade. After the week is over, the grade is a zero and will not be changed. This is why it is imperative that students get their work on time.
