Employability Skills
The county requires that 20% of the grade be Employability Skills. The students will begin with 100 points for employability skills and will lose them according to the scale below.

unexcused absence = -15 points per day
truancy = -25 points per day
tardy = -10 points per day
sleeping in class = -2 points
breaking class rule = -2 points
disruptive classroom behavior = -2 points
missing assignment = -5 points
missing materials = -2 points
not on task = -2 points

I grade all work on a points basis.  Each assignment has a point value homework = 5 points, tests = 100 points, journal = 5 points, project = 25 points, etc.  The average is found by dividing the accumulated points by the assigned points.  This will account for 80% of the quarter grade.   This will include but not be limited to the above listed behaviors.
