    • Daily Rehearsal Technique 
      • Students will earn up to 4 points per class that they attend, a weekly average will be entered in the gradebook. 
      • missing any part of the rehearsal will result in reduction of Daily Rehearsal Technique grade for that day
        • this includes being tardy: if you are tardy you miss part of the rehearsal which is the same as skipping a section of a formative assessment
        • this will be calculated by how much of the rehearsal you miss
        • there will be opportunities to make up missed rehearsal points.
    • Retreats
      • This grade reflects the work a student does during these events

    ANY assessment can be retaken at any time during that semester.
