| If my kid drops now, will it be on the transcript? I see it in his grades and graduation credit report - hoping it gets removed. |

| It shouldn't be. |

| No. I don't know the deadline but it's certainly not this week. |

Grades and credits shall be awarded according to the following guidelines:
a) If a student withdraws from a course before the end of the fifth week (25 school days), no notation is made on the student's permanent record or report card. b) If the student withdraws after the end of the fifth week (25 school days) of the course, "withdrew" or "W", the date of the withdrawal, and the grade averaged to the time of withdrawal will be entered on the report card and permanent record. c) Should the student transfer to a course in the same subject area, credit is awarded for those courses completed successfully. https://ww2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/policy/detail.aspx?recID=267&policyID=JEC-RA§ionID=10 |

| No both my high performing magnet kids dropped one class each at the beginning of the school year. One during COVID couldn’t handle virtual AP Chem and other a beyond AP programming class. No evidence on their schedule that they dropped. 2021 and 2025 grad. |

Both my kids dropped their extra AP's that they were taking thru independent study. We realised we'd over extended them and these classes were not necessary.
DS dropped AP Human Geography and DD dropped AP Stats. She was already taking AP Calc and he had taken all the available AP's in SS by the end of 11th grade. |

| No, one of my kids dropped a FL AP early in Jr year to take a community college course. It wasn’t on the transcript. |
