Grading guidelines are created with alignment to the State of Texas Education Code, Legal and Local Policies, and District Regulations. Teachers are also responsible for following all guidelines as well as accommodations and modifications afforded to students and student groups. Our number one goal should always be student success.  \nLesson Plans  \nLesson plans shall be aligned with the HQIM adopted resource (Bluebonnet), TCMPC Curriculum Scope and Sequence, Pacing Guide, and Timelines. The lesson plan design shall include those items deemed appropriate for that specific campus by the campus principal. Such items shall include, but not be limited to, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills,(TEKS), English Learner Proficiency Standards (ELPS), instructional strategies/activities which considers any needed prerequisite teaching, student practice, assessment for student mastery, and any required accelerated learning and/or re-teaching. Documentation of modifications for students receiving special education services and extensions for Gifted and Talented students must be maintained. Teachers shall adhere to the TCMPC scope and sequence and/or the Program Implementation Guide for HQIM Curriculum. Technology objectives listed in the TEKS must be integrated into the content areas  \nStandards for Mastery  \nIn addition to the factors in law that must be considered for promotion, mastery shall be determined as follows:  \n1. Course assignments and unit evaluation shall be used to  \ndetermine student grades in a subject. An average of 70 or higher  \nshall be  \nconsidered a passing grade.  \n2. Mastery of the skills necessary for success at the next level shall be validated by assessments that may either be incorporated into unit or final exams or may be administered separately. Mastery of at least 70 percent of the objectives shall be required.  \nGrading Percentages  \nA student’s grades will be based upon academic performance and course expectations. The student’s mastery level of the TEKS will be the primary factor in determining the grade for a subject or course. Behavior, bringing supplies, or writing name(s) on paper must not impact a student’s grade. The types of assignments/assessments used in determining mastery of TEKS might include:  \nhomework, classwork, class participation, daily quizzes, major exams, compositions, projects, performances, demonstrations, oral reports, labs, district-wide assessments.  \nFormative Grades: The goal of formative assessments is to support the frequent and ongoing evaluations that track student progress and the foundation for feedback that drives instruction while it’s happening. Formative assessments help teachers to plan and adjust lessons by identifying areas of strengths and needs.  \nSummative grades: The goal of the summative assessment is to evaluate the broader sum of the students’ work thus far against the learning goals and objectives for the course or unit. The summative assessments should reflect the formative assessments.  \n\n| Elementary (1st-5th) Grading | Secondary (6th-12th) Grading |\n| --- | --- |\n| Percentage Categories: Formative: 40%\u003Cbr>(Homework, Warm-Ups, Bell Ringers, Exit Tickets, Quizzes, Independent Practice, Formative Assessments)\u003Cbr>Summative: 60%\u003Cbr>(Projects, Unit Test, Summative Test)\u003Cbr>Each teacher will enter a minimum of one grade per week in core content subjects; and at least one test grade per 3 weeks:\u003Cbr>Math and English Language Arts ● Minimum of 12 grades per grading period\u003Cbr>● Minimum of 9 formative grades per grading period\u003Cbr>● Minimum of 3 summative grades per grading period\u003Cbr>Science and Social Studies\u003Cbr>● Minimum of 6 grades per grading period\u003Cbr>● Minimum of 5 formative\u003Cbr>","cbCaisxNoMfk5sCy","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisxNoMfk5sCy","pdf",294759,12,"English","# Introduction\n# Lesson Plans\n# Standards for Mastery\n# Grading Percentages\n## Formative Grades\n## Summative Grades\n## Elementary (1st-5th) Grading\n## Secondary (6th-12th) Grading\n## Interims/Benchmarks and Semester Weighting","[{\"question\":\"What is the primary factor used to determine student grades in a subject or course?\",\"answer\":\"A student’s mastery level of the TEKS is the primary factor for determining grades.\"},{\"question\":\"What score is considered a passing grade under the guidelines?\",\"answer\":\"An average of 70 or higher is considered a passing grade.\"},{\"question\":\"How are grades weighted for formative versus summative work?\",\"answer\":\"Formative grades are 40% and summative grades are 60% in both elementary and secondary grading models.\"}]","Itasca ISD Grading Guidelines - Procedures, Regulations, and Explanations - 2026-2027 | PDF",1790802077]
