The Dallas ISD Grading Policy for high school classes is as follows:

Task Percentage of the six week grade
Class work & Homework 40%
Tests 25%
Projects/products 20%
Six Weeks Test 15%

The grade for each semester will be a combination of the six week grades and a semester test. In Multimedia, that test will be an ACP (Assessment of Course Performance) exam. In Video Technology, that test will be a teacher-made exam. The exam grade will count for 15% of your semester grade, leaving each six week score to count for 28.3%. Both semester grades will be averaged for your final grade.

Due to the fact that this is a non-traditional class, the following categories will be fulfilled with these specific types of assignments:


You will be given two days following any absence to make up a missed grade. Late work will also be accepted.
