Grading System

Grades are based on attendance and participation in all assigned activities and projects. A commissioner's job description outlines the main work, but everyone is expected to serve in the planning and implementation of school events. Some missed activities may be made up, but grades will be lowered for lack of initiative or follow-through and for not fulfilling your responsibilities.

Further consequences related to eligibility, will be determined    by the Titan Code of Conduct Committee. This committee will determine the status of the student in the extracurricular, co-curricular, or GATE program(s). Depending on the severity of the infraction, the committee may place a student on probation, suspend the student from the program(s) for a period of time or remove student's eligibility status for the semesters and/or the semester following.

The Titan Code of Conduct Committee may be part of the Due Process Committee. The       minimal membership must be an administrator, counselor, the student, parent, and a staff      member representing the affected activity(s)/programs.
