ZAP Policy In the event a student has a missing assignment they will be ZAPPED. This means that they will need to either get the assignment turned in the next morning by 8:40 AM (to the front office) or go to ZAP during lunch to complete the assignment. All work turned in late will result in a reduction of points even while attending ZAP. Points will be deducted as follows: 1 day late: -11 points 2 days late: -20 points 3 days late: -30 points # of ZAPS Consequences No Parent SignatureLunch Detention 1 st Day No ShowAfter School Detention 2 nd Day No Show Office Referral 0-3 ZAPS Warnings ZAPS Reduction in Wildcatter Card ZAPS Reduction in Wildcatter Card 10+ ZAPS After School Detention

Correction Policy Classroom assignments and tests may be corrected. If a student earned less than a 70 on a test he/she would like to retake/correct, he/she must attend tutorials first. The purpose of this is to ensure the student has a better understanding of the knowledge and skills being tested. The student has up to 3 days from the time the assignment is handed back to him/her to make corrections or retake the test. This guideline does not include projects, final or semester exams or benchmarks.
