If the assignment is marked graded it means it is worth 2 or 5 points depending on the type of stamp received. If you do not have a stamp on it then you need to bring the completed assignment before or after school to receive a grade.
If it is stamped with a score you are not satisfied with you may bring the fixed assignment in before or after school for a higher score up until the Notebook Check for that unit.
Be sure to check the Table of Contents often to make sure you have all assignments!
ONCE THE NOTEBOOK HAS BEEN GRADED FOR THAT UNIT ASSIGNMENTS CAN NO LONGER BE BROUGHT IN FOR A HIGHER SCORE.
NOTEBOOK CHECKS ARE FINAL!
BE SURE TO FIX ALL ASSIGNMENTS BEFORE THE NOTEBOOK CHECK!
