Report Cards will be sent to
the students in Mid- June. If conferences are needed, please call the
Guidance Office for appointments.
Reports cards, distributed four times a
year, are preceded by failure notices, if the danger exists. Such
notices should prompt an immediate request on the part of the
parent/guardian for a parent-teacher conference and should prompt
immediate action on the part of the student. Parents should also
acquaint themselves with our Parent-Student Handbook policies on failures
and opportunities for their removal. If for any reason the
parent/guardian does not receive a report card at the end of each quarter,
he/she should contact the Guidance Department immediately (732)
382-1952/1950/1951. Report cards are usually distributed at General
Parents' Guild meetings. Parents must pick up at least the January
report card personally.
Students are graded on a letter
basis:
In the middle of each marking period,
deficiency notices are sent to the parents of students who are in danger
of failing. Although deficiency notices are normally issued in the
middle of each marking period, they may be issued at any time. If a
student does not receive a notice at the designated time(s), it would
indicate that her work is satisfactory at that point.
If a student receives an incomplete
grade, due to illness, it is her responsibility to coordinate this makeup
work with her teacher(s) within three weeks. Otherwise, zero
will be given for the missed assignment(s) and the grade will be averaged
accordingly.
Semester averages are determined by
giving a one-third value to each of the two marking periods and one-third
to the examination. Final averages are computed by averaging the two
semester grades.
Examinations are given in January and in
June. Examination guidelines are issued prior to each examination
period. Examination passes are issued to students whose tuition
accounts are up-to-date. Students must present examination passes to
obtain admittance to each examination. Student accounts must be up
to date if the student is to complete examinations. Upon completion
of first semester, students who are failing or who present behavior
problems may be requested to leave Mother Seton Regional High
School.
