[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm fussed about it. I'm a HS teacher in FCPS with HS aged kids. I think it is horrible, but what can I do? I can complain to the school board, but that seems to accomplish nothing.[/quote] It'd require going to the legislature and making them pass a law that sets what qualifies for the 990 hours as only or mainly academics (right now it includes a lot of other stuff), or reverts to just a 180 day requirement since schools can go remote on snow days, or something like that. Or enshrining something in the state constitution. Or having the Governor direct VDOE to make a change. Basically change happens because masses of parents from multiple districts complain at the state level. That's how SB 1303 was passed and how VMPI stopped even playing footsie with the idea of detracking math.[/quote]
