Quizzes and tests are always announced in advance (no surprises).
Practice quizzes and tests are also available.
Missed quizzes/tests may need to be made up outside of class time.
A missed quiz/test must be made up by one week after it was initially given or the grade for that quiz/test can become a “0.”

Test & quiz corrections

After most tests or quizzes, students have the opportunity to correct the work they had incorrect on the test or quiz. These corrections are worth 10% of the points the test or quiz was worth. Students may need to work on test and quiz corrections in VIP/Homeroom.

Returned pass coupons

Students receive three pass coupons at the start of the semester and halfway (approximately nine weeks) through the semester. Unused pass coupons can be returned for extra quiz/test points (usually two or three points apiece).

Final Examination (10% of overall grade)

This is a cumulative evaluation of material learned and applied throughout the semester.
