IPC


Students conduct field and laboratory investigations, use scientific methods during investigations, and make informed decisions using critical-thinking and scientific problem solving.  The IPC students will complete 1 semester of basic physic principles and have one semester of chemistry.  In both semesters students will be required to do a project that will count as two major test grades.  Both Physics and Chemistry are math oriented in nature and require basic math skills along with the ability to think and reason out problems.  It would be beneficial for students to have a basic 4 function calculator for class.

 


ABSENCE POLICY AND MAKE-UP WORK:

1.  Class attendance is mandatory; you must present and admit slip upon returning to class

        after an absence.

2.  All work due the day you were absent is due the day you return to class.

3.  Make-up work must be discussed with the teacher.

4.  NO LATE WORK WILL BE ACCEPTED.

5.  If you are absent the day BEFORE a previously announced test, and return the day of the test, you will be required to take the exam.  Special circumstances will be discussed with your teacher. 

 


GRADING POLICY

1.  The test average will count 70% of your overall average; the daily grade will make up the remaining 30%.

2.  Daily grades consists of graded homework, class assignments, announced and unannounced quizzes, and lab assignments.

3.  Deficiency reports will be sent to any student whose average falls to 75% or below, and parent calls will be made.


RETEACHING/RETESTING INFORMTION

1.  Students who fail a major test may have an opportunity to improve the test grade based whether they are willing to come in for tutorials and are willing to take another test.  If the student does receive an opportunity to re-test, the highest grade he or she may receive is a 70.
