The most common question people have is how grades are computed.

| 40 | Tests and Quizzes (individual) |
| 20 | Projects |
| 20 | Participation |
We use the standard Whitney Young grading scale (90+ A, 80+ B, 70+ C, 60+ D, below 60 F).
Class participation will be four points per day. You must be present and engaged in the class activities for the entire class to earn all of the points.
Please contact your teacher if you have a very unusual circumstance (extended illness, international competition, etc.). Ordinary events causing you to miss a day or two of school are not in that category.
