[quote=Anonymous]An equity truancy policy would look at the circumstances of a kid's absences and not penalize the kid if he had to work, or babysit while a parent worked, or didn't have a way to get to school (for a younger kid). An equity grading policy might recognize that some kids are getting a lot of parental (or professional) help on certain projects vs other kids who do not have access to printers or PhD parents at home. Ultimately, final grades should reflect whether kids learned the material...whether that happened on time, or more slowly over the year. The final grade should reflect what the student has achieved by the end of the class.[/quote]
