ICU
Pipestone Area Schools uses the ICU work completion program. All students are here to learn and the
expectation of ICU is that all students will complete all work that is expected of them. Work assigned is
expected by the due date and if not done on time, students will be put in the ICU list. Students will be
given extra time before, during, and after school to complete this work and will continue to stay on this
list until the work is completed and satisfactory for the teacher.
A second expectation of ICU is not only work completion but an understanding of the assignment.
Homework or “practice sets” will be graded accordingly:
95% - 100%
85% - 94%
75% - 84%
74% and below
10 points
9 points
8 points
REDO
A score of 74% or less will constitute a redo. Students can try the assignment on their own or come in
for extra help throughout the school day. Redos are due the following day. Students will be allowed to
redo tests and quizzes at the discretion of the instructor. Tests and quizzes must be redone either in my
classroom or another appropriately supervised room. Tests and quizzes cannot be redone at home.
