Grading Contract for SAT Prep

Mrs. Lynch, 2006-2007

Listed below are the requirements for numerical grades in the SAT Prep class.  There are 4 categories included in your grade contract.  Your grade will be based on the highest contract level you fulfill in all four categories.  Mid-range grades will be recorded unless some extra effort on your part justifies the top of the range.  In other words, an A will be recorded as 96 unless your extra efforts indicate you should receive 100.  Absences are considered in the grade for participation.
