[quote=Anonymous]Lack of accountability I'm also a career switcher. There is no accountability for anything. They get an automatic 50% on assignments, retries on failed tests, and make-up packets for excessive absenteeism. I think this would be fine as a seldom used policy for kids with special circumstances, but as a blanket policy it just encourages laziness. Parents also seem to only care about the grades and will do virtually anything to get their way. I could possibly understand it if college was free for anyone with over a certain GPA. If I catch a child cheating on an exam, the parents will be in the main office to complain that if I did a better job teaching the material then the child wouldn't need to cheat. And my administrators find a "middle ground" by asking me to design an entirely new test for the child to take. [/quote]
