End of Week: Check Grades and Read Feedback!
Grades are updated by the teacher daily. Zeros are entered for missing assignments from the student's schedule. Students and parents should review grades and notify the teacher of any issues. Students are encouraged to turn in missing work for partial credit according to GaVS late policy to the right. (Click picture to see details.)
Feedback is provided for every assignment in the course that will help you improve your weak areas or provide you with additional study help on those topics. Read your feedback to see this valuable information I am communicating to you.
