Re: Communication/Language exchange

Hola;

I was so glad to note that are located in a Spanish speaking country.
I am an Instructional Technologist, working in the position of Tech.
Integration Specialist at a HS in Washington, DC. This year my attempt to
have the Spanish and French teachers make a connection with a foreign
language class was not fruitful. I did not spend a lot of time at it, but my
assumption that they had more connections than I was not accurate--they were
not able to make the arrangements.

Ideally, I hope for the classes to have some exchange of communication using
Skype. Don't know whether you're in a position to contemplate it, or can
recommended someone that may be interested in the online exchange?

Thanks for the consideration.
Girelle

Final GradesHi Lisa,

In our Middle School, final averages are calculated as:

Quarter Grades = 40% and Exam = 20% for the semester average, then the two
semesters are weighted 50/50 for the final year grade.

In the Upper School, final averages are calculated as:

Quarter Grades = 33.33% and Exam = 33.34% for the semester average, then the

two semesters are weighted 50/50 for the final year grade.

Semester classes are weighted as with the semester percentages.

Can I just get some input on how final grades are calculated at your
school. Do you weight each quarter/trimester equally? Or do you take
all of the points earned divided by the points possible from the
entire school year?

Thanks!
Lisa
