ART GRADING PROCEDURE
It is our belief that a student's progress will develop best in a safe environment where students can develop a good work ethic and help each other in a constructive cooperative manner. We encourage you to participate in your child’s education. If you have any questions regarding any of these procedures you can contact us through the high school office at Phone: 1-417-582-5901
We grade on a total points possible system. The points are acquired through the successful assessment of the criteria listed below.
Work Ethic (Foundations: 50% Intermediate/Advanced: 20%)
√ Time √ Class contribution, group criticisms, and interaction √ Maintenance √ Safety
Physically being there: If, for any reason, a student is not present during a class period they will lose their points. Work can be made-up.
Mentally being there: Students can be losing up to all of their work ethic points through violations of the classroom procedures/rules.
(Work Ethic points will be assessed every session and computed every two weeks.)
Process (Foundations: 25% Intermediate/Advanced: 40%)
√ Planning √ written critique/Narrative/Tests/Quizzes √ Journal work
√ Additional Criteria, (i.e. specific instructions, techniques, concepts, and etc.)
Image (Product/Performance) (Foundations: 25% Intermediate/Advanced: 40%)
√ Concept √ Composition √ Craftsmanship √ Completion
