Middle and High School Testing Policy and Procedures

Because UHC classes meet only twice a week, there is typically not sufficient time to test students in class; therefore, the following procedure should be followed when a test/quiz is sent home as a paper copy or via a juno pod in Jupiter Ed.

Paper Test and Quiz Procedures:

  • Tests/quizzes will be sent home in sealed envelopes.
  • Parent should take the test from their student and hold it until the day it is to be taken.
  • Student will prepare to complete the test or quiz by removing all notes, books, and any other help, such as phones or other devices from the testing area.
  • Parent should then remove the test/quiz from the envelope and administer it to the student at a table in an area where the parent can see the student at all times.
  • Parent may look it over to ensure it is fully completed without offering academic assistance once test is complete.
  • Student will place the test in the return testing envelope and seal the envelope closed.
  • Parent will sign their name across the seal. Your signature indicates the test/quiz was proctored by an adult for the entire time, and it was taken fairly with only the aid of what the teacher permitted students to use (i.e. calculator, etc.).
  • Student will bring the completed test in the sealed and signed envelope to class on the due date.

JE Juno Test and Quiz Procedures:

  • Test/Quizzes will be made available as a Juno Pod on the To Do list and Calendar. They will be “live” during the selected date/dates the teacher sets.
  • Parent will be sent a message by the assigning teacher via JE with a secret proctor code word. This is NOT to be shared with your student as this proctor code replaces the signing of a paper test.
  • Student will prepare for the test/quiz by removing all notes, books, and any other help such as phones or other devices from the testing area.
  • Parent must be present as the test/quiz is taken by the student at a table in an area where the parent can see the student at all times.
  • Parent will  be present as the test/quiz is taken by the student at a table in an area where the parent can see the student at all times.
  • Parent will look to make sure all questions are answered, then type in the secret proctor code word (as the answer to a question) that has been sent via JE by the assigning teacher once the student completes the test/quiz. This indicates that the test/quiz was proctored by an adult for the entire time and was taken fairly with only the aid of what the teacher permitted students to use (i.e. calculator, etc.).
  • Student will submit the test/quiz on the date assigned.

UHC Testing Policy:

If an in-class quiz is missed due to an absence, the student is expected to plan with the teacher to take the quiz during the 15 minute break or during lunch on the day he returns to Co-op. If the quiz is not taken on the co-op day following the absence, the student will receive a zero unless other prior arrangements are made with the teacher.

Tests and quizzes may not be re-taken by a student unless the instructor deems it necessary for the entire class to retake the test/quiz.

Failure to comply with UHC Testing Policy and Procedure will result in the student receiving a zero for the test/quiz.
