Grading Policy

2026-2027 Grading Policy

Each school year, the IS 125Q community reviews our grading policy. Our grading policy puts the most emphasis on the work that is completed within  the school day. Homework plays an important part of a young person's education, but homework is a reinforcement for the work that was taught in class. Homework is also a way in which students can demonstrate their own levels of time management and meeting the obligations as students.
