Tests/Portfolios

Middle school students will be given written tests throughout the trimesters.

At the end of each trimester, the students from 2nd - 8th, PPA, PPB & PPC will be responsible to hand in their portfolios (2-pocket folder) with their art work. The folder or portfolio needs to be labeled with their name and grade/homeroom. This will count as a test grade. 
The portfolio is to have all the artwork that was done throughout the trimester.  Students will be given a grade for all their completed artwork and  on how they have progressed throughout the trimester.
