    2nd Chance/Retake Opportunities
    If students would like to improve a test score, he/she can complete 2nd chance learning as long as the student has completed all of the unit homework.  Here is the process the students will need to follow:

    1. Complete the 2nd chance assignment.  Show your work
    2. Turn the completed problems into Mrs. Pogalz to be corrected.  
    3. Keep making corrections until your work is 100% (must be done within the given time frame.)
    4. Schedule a time with Mrs. Pogalz to retake the test.   
    5. Study more and retake the test. The retake score will be the grade that goes in the grade book.

    Everyone has the opportunity to retake a test or quiz.  I strongly recommend that anyone with less than 80% retake any unit assessment, as this course is for high school credit.  

    Retakes will not be allowed on the District CSA’s.
