Test...

|

Many students have come to me asking if there is a way to bring their grades on the last test up.

There is...

If you'd like to have the grade on your last test scaled, you can. See me and we'll set up a time, probably before or after, school for you to come in. I'll give you back your test, and you can go over it using your notes and book. Correct your scores, and I'll scale your grade.

A scale can make a HUGE difference ( a grade of 65 can be changed to an 80) so make sure to take advantage!  Remember, it is the student's responsibility to take the initiative!

This offer expires 10/25!
