Class Preparation

Class Preparation

Rivendell's tutors will not be required to notify parents if a child is unprepared or misses an assignment. Parents will receive quarterly student progress evaluations with suggested grades (dialectic and rhetoric classes only) but the parents will submit the final grade to their local school district.

Unprepared students will not be permitted to hold back the rest of the class. For instance, if one student has not purchased his literature book, the rest of the class will proceed as scheduled. In some classes, tutors assign activities that require the students to know material in order to participate meaningfully. If students are prepared, they may participate in the activity. Those students that are not prepared should sit quietly and watch. Unprepared students may also be sent to study hall to complete the assignment that wasn't completed at home.

If a student's lack of preparedness is disruptive to other students, he will be removed from class.
