Algebra Objectives

Objectives are our important topics we will learn in class and also be tested over during
the school year. You will be tested over each objective twice. To pass an objective you
must get 75% of the test questions per objective correct, and if not you will be give
remedial worksheets to help you practice the objectives you are deficient in. A student
must keep 80% of their objectives completed weekly or they will have their grade docked
one part of a letter grade each week that they are below the 80% mark. At the end of the
semester 80% of the objectives must be completed to pass the class.
