Q: When Will Semester Grades Be Available?
A: Final Grades for all courses will be available on Aeries by Friday, June 15th. It is possible that grades might be available sooner.
Q: Can I Turn In Late Work To Fix My Grade?
A: Until Friday, June 8th at 5:00pm, yes, as long as the assignment is a recent one and shows up on Aeries as a “missing assignment”. All missing/late work after Friday, June 8th at 5:00pm will be a zero grade, cannot be changed, and will not be taken late. On Friday June 8th, at 5:00pm, all websites will be disabled so that uploads will not be taken.
Q: In Mobile App or Animation Projects, I missed a grade by a few points, will you round it up?
A: No, please see the course info packet you signed in September regarding this topic. I have nothing further to add.
Q: In AP Computer Science, I missed a grade by a few points, will you round it up?
A: No, please see the course info packet you signed in September regarding this topic. I would like to point out that I scaled all five quizzes that we took this semester, I provided an Extra Credit project this semester, and I scaled the semester Final exam we took last week. Also, I scaled the Finch Robot assignment to 57 instead of 60. In short, I have provided a number of opportunities for every AP Comp Sci. student to reach the next higher grade if they are close.
Have a great summer, and good luck Seniors with your future!
Mr. Eliot
