Retest Policy

Retest Policy

  • The retest policy is student initiated, and the student must complete the “Request to Retest” form within two days of receiving the assessment back from the teacher.
  • The teacher and student will coordinate a time for the retest.
  • The student answers questions in a reflection section of the request. For example, the student must describe the reasons for a poor score and what can be done differently to improve the previous score.
  • The request also requires the student and parent (grades 6-8) to sign the form as well as the teacher’s approval.
  • The teacher can provide 2 opportunities to retest during a nine-week period.
  • Finally, the teacher can determine the most appropriate way to ensure that the concept was learned. It can be an alternate test, a reflection of the missed questions, a lesson form Apex, or an explanation of the new learning, etc.
