1. 7th Grade Pre-AP Math Mrs. Parks Grading: Textbook:
ext. 231
Conference Period: 5th Period 12:15 – 1:15
Grading:
Weights:
*Formative (assignments) – 60%
*Summative (tests and quizzes) – 40%
Homework: Students will complete weekly cumulative reviews. This assignment is problems that I will assign each Friday, and it will be due the next Friday. These questions will cover material previously taught. You will have a Cumulative Review Quiz after every 3 Cumulative Reviews so it is important the student gives their best effort and completes them entirely by themselves!
**Pre-AP students must maintain an 85 average to remain in that course. Progress will be checked every 3 weeks. The first time a student does not maintain an 85 average during a 3 week interval, they will be placed on probation and parent contact will be made. Any student who is on a probationary status and does not maintain an 85 average will be placed into a general course in that subject area upon parent contact. 
**For specific policy criteria, please refer to the handout your child received in their Social Studies classroom stating the Terra Vista Middle School grading policy, or refer to the TVMS website.
