Assignment Weighting
 | Assignment weighting depends on if a unit contains a project, a test, or both. Click here for a detailed breakdown.

Quiz Attempts
 | - Students are given two attempts on each quiz to reach the threshold of 73%. Keep in mind that the solutions and per-question scores will not be available until after the student has submitted the second attempt. If a student attempts the quiz for a second time, the student will keep the score of the second attempt.
- After the second attempt, students may, with teacher approval, earn partial credit on quizzes scored below 70% by submitting explanations and/or problem-solving steps. These should be sent via message in Ignitia or Canvas, and eligible scores may be raised up to a maximum of 73%. Students may ask to keep the higher of the two scores subject to teacher approval. Quiz corrections are preferred under normal circumstances.
- Students are not allowed to make corrections on quizzes with scores above 73%. Students are not allowed to submit corrections in previously completed units unless explicitly allowed by the teacher.
- Note: Teachers reserve the right to refuse quiz corrections. Examples of reasons that a teacher may refuse to allow students to submit corrections include, but are not limited to, the student:
- Not spending extra time on the second attempt
- Refusing to submit corrections in the proper manner
- Refusing to put forth the time or effort needed to earn a higher score
- If a teacher sees a need for a student to attempt a quiz a second or third time, the teacher may assign a quiz with similar questions. Additional attempts will not be granted unless an exception is made at the discretion of the teacher (for example, if confirmed technical errors have occurred).
