Grades
Grades at CAVA are standards based, with an emphasis on student mastery of standard specific content.
Mastery can be tracked in the OLS under "Courses", and progress reports are shared bi-weekly by Mrs. Donaghy to your email address on file.
During our LIVE classes we focus on a mix of OLS sandards and the 5 Essential Standards.
