Are mid term and finals eligible for retakes?
A. Re-assessments/retakes are not used with mid-term and final exams. However, at the discretion of the teacher, additional or alternative measures (e.g., extra credit projects, other measures of proficiency) may be proposed if the student’s achievement on these is inconsistent with other measures of their performance. While it is important for students to learn and practice with “high stakes” tests, “test-taking” itself is a process; moreover, grades should reflect learning of content more than grades distinguish students on “test-taking” factors.
