Attendance
Attendance
Attendance must be reported on Infinite Campus, each day, during the first 10 minutes of all class periods. Each teacher will call roll and record all absent students in Infinite Campus. Any student arriving at school after 8:05 a.m., and late to your class, should report directly to the receptionist’s desk for a tardy pass and to be marked tardy. Students late after 1st period should be marked tardy by each teacher at the beginning of each class period. Contact a parent if the student is tardy to your class after the 3rd time and place this in parent communication on Infinite Campus.
Passes to class from anyone other than the attendance office, counselor, or administrator should not be accepted.
To DCSD and DECA-TIMELY & CORRECT Attendance is a priority.
Grades
Grades
A minimum of 2-3 grades per week must be recorded in varying categories. (See the table below for grade distribution.)
Grading Protocol
Learning is an ongoing continuum and as such there must be accountability. There will be a minimum number of assignments for each grading category elementary through high school that is a balance across the grading protocol assigned to students per week.
Students will receive a M for all missing assignments. Missing assignments will calculate to a zero until completed by the communicated-predetermined deadline established by the classroom teacher.
Grades must be entered into Infinite Campus within a week of being collected.
Parent Communication
Parent Communication
Parent communication must be documented in Infinite Campus on the Teacher Contact Log. Additional documentation is to be kept by the teacher, and the teacher should be able to present this documentation to an administrator at the end of each grading period. Telephone calls are to be the first mode of communication, e-mail communication should be used as a follow-up to a call and for documentation.
Parent-Teacher conferences will be scheduled after progress reports are issued and/or as needed. Dates for specific conference night will be announced. The time scheduled for Parent-Teacher Conference Nights will begin between 3:30 pm – 4:00pm and last for 2 hours (exact times will be announced). Conferences should average about ten minutes in duration. Parents will be informed of the exact dates of conferences via newsletters, announcements, telephone calls and the automated telephone system, Calling Post. All teachers MUST be present at scheduled conference nights.
The parent(s) of a student in danger of failing must be contacted after each 4.5-week progress report, or when the student's grade is a 75 or below and a remediation plan must be discussed (and documented). Parental contact constitutes actual dialogue with a parent or guardian. A message left on voicemail is not acceptable. E-mail dialogue, however, is an acceptable form of communication provided additional dialogue is established via a telephone call.
