[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No easy answers this year, but this is tough. Not all schools in the area are equally hard/easy, and GPA doesn't give the full story.[/quote] Especially when DCPS adopted a massive extra credit policy and a ton of kids ended up with inflated grades at the end of the last school year. The lowest grade my 8th grader got term 4 last year was 170.3[/quote] and my ADHD student who performed really well in the classroom tanked during DL i am curious how 504 students did the 3rd and 4th advisory. I know that for the 1st advisory this year the data shows that students with IEPs, 504s, or at-risk have performed worse vs peers. How can this be a equitable manner of selection?[/quote] Walls doesn’t take kids with IEPS and barely takes kids with 504s. So in this sense it doesn’t matter how these kids are performing. They aren’t welcomed at the school. [/quote]
