CURRICULUM AND GRADING:

Students will be using Vail Teacher-Created courses in Schoology which will focus on 3rd quarter objectives. There will be a content-area teacher available each day for students and direct instruction will be provided.

Students will focus on one content area per day, therefore when the student leaves at the end of each day they will be done with that content area.

Students with IEP and 504 accommodations will have a certified teacher and paraprofessional available to assist and modify instruction for their specific needs.

In person attendance is mandatory. The grade earned in Intersession will be averaged with the grade earned in the 3rd quarter. This newly averaged grade

will then become the official 3rd quarter grade, up to an 80%. NOTE: Intersession can only raise grades; it cannot lower them. Students must complete the intersession course in

order to receive the grade increase.

EXAMPLE: Quarter 3 grade of 50% Intersession grade of 80% Average of the two is 65%

Now 65% is the new official Quarter 3 grade for that class.
