Regular feedback in the form of marked tests, assignments and projects is important in evaluating student progress and in keeping students interested in learning and scoring high on tests. On a weekly basis, teachers grade homework, quizzes, tests, and/or assignments in order to prepare the progress report every three weeks.
Student’s grades are based on results from tests, quizzes, projects/assignments, homework, experiments, presentations, and active participation. American International School uses the following grading system:
