EXTRA CREDIT
Extra credit is put into place to allow your child/children
to do well in gym and health classes. It provides an
opportunity for students to correct any negative grades
or points.
Extra credit for points (90) can be submitted whenever
you don’t acquire all points for gym, test poorly in
health, or are absent more than once from class.
Extra credit consist of a two page (2) paper for grades
three and under and three to four page paper for grades
four through eight. All papers must have a cover sheet
stating name, room number, title, date, and which
subject it is for (gym/health). Papers must be double
spaced and typing will get you an extra five points.
It is suggested that these papers are turned in as soon
as you receive negative points or grades. They will not
be accepted the week grades are due. Papers will not
be accepted that are printed directly from the source.
Take your success this school year into your own
hands.
