Honor Roll Braintree High School students earn Honor Roll status each term by attaining excellent grades in all courses, which meet every day. The three honor roll categories are: Maximum Honors: High Honors: Honors: All A’s in all subjects All A’s and one (1) B All A’s and B’s and one (1) C Incomplete Grades A teacher can assign an incomplete grade (I) for any given term if assignments and/or tests were not completed due to legitimate long-term absences. The work must be completed in a time span, which does not exceed the length of the absence plus one day. In no case will a student be given a grade for any succeeding term until the incomplete grade has been changed. Make-up Work 1. Due to absence - students who have been legitimately absent from school have the responsibility to obtain and complete all work missed during the time of their absence. Upon returning to school the time limit for the completion of such work will be the length of the absence plus one day. Extension of this time limit will be granted at the discretion of the teacher involved. Work not made up by the given deadline will result in a zero. 2. Due to exclusion - (suspension) - students who are suspended from school are expected to complete all homework missed during the time of their suspension. The teacher will give the student those assignments that he or she can complete on his or her own. Credit will be given for these assignments. The time limit for the completion of work missed shall be the length of the suspension plus a day. Work not made up by the given deadline will result in a zero. 3. Due to truancy or cutting a class - Students who are truant from school and/or cut a class (es) will not be allowed credit for any work missed. There could be a significant drop in term grades when students choose to miss a class (es) on purpose. Parent -Teacher Conferences The school encourages parents to contact a student's teachers and Guidance Counselors at any time during the school year to arrange conferences to discuss student progress. There will be four (4) school-wide Parent/Teacher Conferences scheduled for this year. The first of these sessions will be a group “Back-to-School” night in late September and subsequent sessions will be individual conferences after the first marking period (two evenings in November) and at the mid-point of the third marking period (an evening in March). Please see back cover for specific dates. Physical Education Attendance and Make-Up Policy Students must be in appropriate PE dress in order to participate and receive credit. Students attending class less than 70% of the term/semester who do not make up classes will fail. Loss of physical education class time due to absence from school must be made up within two weeks. Students must pass all eight (8) semesters of physical education to be eligible to graduate. To pass, a student must (unless medically excused) participate in 70% of the classes in a given term or semester. Students may make up class time missed due to absence from school through Fitness Center participation after school or by taking class during a study period with the permission of the physical education teacher. Seniors must complete their physical education requirement before finals to participate in graduation. 21
