Power Standards Review - Extra Credit Opportunity
Last Friday, each student received a packet of material for their academic classes. They can use this as an extra credit opportunity to review the most important topics (aka "power standards") in each academic class over Thanksgiving Break.
Students can replace their lowest test grade in each class by satisfactorily completing the power standards review for that class. The extra credit assignments are due when students return to school after Thanksgiving.
