[quote=Anonymous]My kid got a 7/14 in an art elective in MS on an assignment (not a test). She did the work. Did poorly and now has completely given up on the class. So yes, let's hand out 50s like candy to kids. Especially in classes no one gives a crap about. Retakes allow kids to feel like there is a reason to keep trying. And no, there is no retake on this stupid assignment and even if there was, I wouldn't have her do it. It's MS and art. Who cares. Just sharing to show you how easily kids can give up when they see no way to dig out of a hole. Can't really recover from a 50. [/quote]
