Skirts that do not have belt loops do not need to have a belt. Grades A big change from second to third grade is letter grades. You child will now be assigned letter grades based on percentages earned. Grades are based on the quality of the work they complete. Daily work, homework, projects, journals, tests, quizzes, participation, papers, and group work are several different ways your student will be assessed and assigned a grade. Truancy Program To encourage and improve school attendance, Paradise Schools has implemented a truancy program in partnership with Maricopa County Juvenile Court. |
