Homework: We will be using Rock Salt Babies in this course to demonstrate parenting responsibility. Dates for students to sign up and take home babies will be on a first come first serve basis. Students will be held responsible for the babies and are to pay for any damages. Grading Scale: Citizenship Grade: Determined by preparedness, attitude, behavior, respect and tardiness. PURPOSE OF GRADING: The purpose of grading is to communicate with students and parents about the achievement and mastery of specific learning goals. It identifies students’ levels of progress with regard to those goals, areas of strength, and areas where additional time and effort are needed. Parents will be notified if a student begins failing. Parents are encouraged to monitor student grades online through Skyward. Please contact the counseling center for your user name and password. GRADES: In our this year (among many others at CMMS) We are moving toward Standards Based Grading. This means that the majority of your grade will be determined by your mastery of skills. This will be explained in more depth later in the week. Participation in this hands on course is most important.
