In addition to following all NMTCC’s listed and/ or posted safety and MSDS Policies, refer to the specific equipment manufacturer’s user, operator, or consumer guides and or shop manuals for complete safety details when using any equipment. Students are not permitted to use any equipment or tools unless they have received and documented that they have received the appropriate safety instruction.

Knowledge grades are based on quizzes, tests, worksheets, and homework. Knowledge grades are 30% of the grade.

Skill grades are based upon visual assessments, lab completions, and data-driven analysis of skills. Skills grades are 40% of the grade.

Work Ethics are graded daily on a 10-point scale according to the work ethic rubric. Work ethic is 30% of the grade.

Make-up Work Policy: 

Students are required to make up all work missed during absences due to illness or family emergencies. Missing work is located in the absence folder. Because most of our work is completed online, the student has access to the material at home.

Due to the amount of work it takes to complete some of the assignments, your attendance is essential to get the most out of your learning experience. If you are going to be absent or late, please have your parent or guardian call the school or bring in a note. Students who are absent will receive a Work Ethic grade of "0" for the day. If the absence is excused, the student will receive a Work Ethic grade of a "5" with an opportunity to make up the assignment and have their Work Ethic grade changed to a "10". Students who are late will receive a Work Ethic grade of a "5" for the day. If the lateness is excused, the student will receive a Work Ethic grade of a "5" with an opportunity to make up the assignment and have their Work Ethic grade changed to a "10".

Every student must complete a Senior Portfolio.  Portfolios will be created by following the sequence of grade-level assignments. Senior Portfolio artifacts will be graded per program expectations and assignment criteria and be included in the marking period grade for which the assignment is due. Portfolios will be housed in their Google Drive. Students will be able to take the portfolios with them or have access to them after graduation.
