Grading Procedures

criteria

Design Components: Specific objectives relative to each project will be stated at the beginning of each assignment or unit of study


Media Applications: use of media, techniques, materials; technical execution/craftsmanship


Communication and Composition: Aesthetic and conceptual quality of finished work


Homework Policy:

In art class, homework includes generating, researching, exploring, and selecting ideas to be used as class projects. It is important that students explore ideas at home when they have quiet “think time.” The initial spark of an idea or concept may best be devised at home. Days wasted trying to get an idea during class studio time are often the cause of an unfinished project. 


Make-Up Policy/Late Work:

Make-up work and tests are allowed for students who have obtained a re-admit slip from the Attendance Office, by turning in an appropriate written excuse. The responsibility for arranging makeup tests and work rests with the students and must be scheduled at the conveniences of the teacher within three days of the students returning to class and completed within five days upon return. A student may not miss one class in order to complete or make up work in another class without prior approval from both teachers. Students will lose 5 points a day for work that is turned in late each day after the due date.


Equipment Policy

Students who need to check out equipment (cameras, tri-pods, lenses, etc) must complete a form to do so. Students are responsible for the entire cost of checked-out equipment if it is lost, broken, or stolen.
