    2020-2021 North Myrtle Beach Middle School Grading Guidelines

    North Myrtle Beach Middle offers a wide variety of courses that enable students to develop academically,
    socially, physically, and emotionally. Students are encouraged to work especially hard to achieve since this is
    the reason why they are in school.

    Some important points concerning academics are as follows:

    1. Grading and Reporting: Students will receive two [2] types of reports during each nine-week grading
    period, an interim report and a report card.
    a. Interim reports are issued at approximately the middle of each of the four nine-week grading
    periods.
    b. Report cards are issued at the end of each nine-week quarter.
    c. Students will receive either an A [90-100], B [80-89], C [70-79], D [60-69], or F [59 and below] in
    all academic subjects (language arts, math, science, social studies) and on courses receiving
    high school credit based on achievement.
    d. Students will receive an S, NI, or U on all physical education and exploratory courses, that are
    not high school credit courses, based on their performance in class.

    S: Satisfactory indicates progress is consistently being attained at a level of 80% or higher


    NI: Needs Improvement indicates progress is being made but is inconsistent and sometimes falls below
    requirements for satisfactory achievement
    U: Unsatisfactory indicates consistently poor achievement with work falling below 70% inaccuracy.

    2. Weighting: All student work will be entered into each gradebook in one of the following categories.
    Please be advised that homework is graded and does count for 20% of our student’s overall grade.
    a. Major Assessments 50%
    b. Mid-level Assessments 30%
    c. Practice 20%

    3. Assessment Retakes: Students will have at least one week from the date of the return of any major
    assessment to retake the assessment in order to improve his/her final grade. It is the responsibility of
    the student to take advantage of the policy by requesting the retake from the teacher and to get a
    parent signature on the initial test. Students may retake any of the major assessments given within a
    quarter; however, this policy applies to tests only, not projects, essays, etc. The following requirements
    must be met prior to a test retake.
    a. The student must complete at least one remediation activity and or session with the teacher
    prior to taking the retest.
    b. The students understand that the two assessments will be averaged together for the final
    average.
    4. Late work:
    Teachers may accept late assignments within three [3] days after the assignment is due. Late
    assignments will receive a one-letter grade reduction for each day the assignment is late.
