Grading Policy:
To earn a B or better in Marketing class you must earn a 75% or better on your District DECA test in the
Fall and the State Assessment test in the Spring.
All daily (non-project or assessment) assignments must be kept in a 3-ring notebook to be checked for
points every 4-weeks – equal to 50% of your grade.
Assessments/quizzes will be given periodically throughout a lesson and final Assessments/tests will be
given at the end of a unit of study. A grade of 80% or better will need to be earned on all quizzes/tests;
if your grade is lower then 80%, you will have to complete a remediation assignment.
Successful completion of the above will earn you a program honors certificate (given at the end of the
year) and if you complete the entire Marketing program (Marketing II taken your senior year), you will
receive the AZ State Program Completer Certification award and the MPS District Program Honors
award (given at the district CTE banquet).
