REBOUND

Bounce Back with REBOUND 

Where would you be without second chances? At BMS, we want to provide that opportunity for our students.  Rebound is the opportunity for your child to “G.R.A.B. a Rebound” and improve their test score. If your child makes a grade on a test that they are unhappy with, they will have an opportunity to retake another form of the test that will result in the average of the two grades. The replacement test will not be harder, but it will be a different format from the one that they did not score their personnel best on in class.

How does Rebound work?

We have told students to G.R.A.B. a Rebound:

G - get a Rebound form from their teacher when they receive the graded test

R - return the form within 2 school days to the teacher who issued the test

A - attend required tutoring prior to the test by either the teacher, parent, or private tutor

B - “be there” (in the media center by 2:30 on your designated day of retest)

Please note: this does not provide total grade replacement, but will result in an average of the two grades even if the second test grade is lower. Please ensure that your child prepares adequately for the retest opportunity. Retests must be completed within two Thursdays following receipt of the graded test.  We realize anyone can have a bad day, so encourage your child to “G.R.A.B. a Rebound”!

REBOUND  will start on Thursday, September 18, 2014 from 2:30-3:30 P.M. and will be every Thursday.  Please make sure you check our calender on the home page of this blog for any changes in the schedule.
