Social Studies Syllabus

Grading:
Grades in the social studies department will be given out as follows:
A: 100-90%
B: 89-80%
C: 79-70%
D: 60-69%
F: 0-59%
Anything below a C is considered failing.
Grades can be checked at anytime using ParentVue.

Missing Assignments & Late work:
An assignment is considered ‘late’ if it is not turned in by the end of the day that it’s due (unless other arrangements have been made). It will then be added to the missing assignment list and students will have one week to complete and turn it in. If it is not turned in after that week, the assignment will receive a score of “0” in the grade book.
Extra Credit:
Extra credit is rarely offered… so take advantage of it when it is!
