Book A is devoted to the big ideas in proportional relationships, operations with rational numbers and algebra. These key topics are in the beginning of the school year so students have the whole year to master and review them. Book B is devoted to the topics from geometry, probability, and statistics.

It is also expected that students regularly check Progressbook to keep track of their own grades. The North Hills School District grading scale will be used. Homework: Homework is a tool to help students independently practice concepts learned in math class. It is very important that homework is completed when it is assigned so that Miss Gruber can help you if you are struggling. Homework is graded according to completion or evidence of attempting to solve the problem(s). If an assignment is not turned in on the day it is due, the student will only receive partial credit. Absences: Students are responsible for assignments when they are absent. When a student is absent, they are to check ProgressBook for missed assignments. They will have as many days to complete the assignment equal to the amount of days they are absent. If a student will be absent for more than 2 days, please contact the Assistant Principal’s office at 412-318-1456 by 10:00 a.m. to request the missed work.
