Grades - Be your own advocate!

You are in High School and Final Grades count!! Your grades will help to determine your Post High School Plan.

Teachers will communicate how they will determine final grades with you – should be in their syllabus. If not, you need to ask.

You need to be checking your grades often. If it is not the grade that you desire, ask your teacher what you can do to improve your grade.

You will receive a report card after 6-weeks, 12-weeks, and 18-weeks of each semester. The Grade on the 18-week report is your final grade –

THIS IS THE ONE THAT COUNTS!!!
