[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are parents really complaining that their kids will be tested on what they learned this semester? [/quote] Considering semester exams are not allowed, this is grounds for complaint. MCPS schools need to be consistent and equitable. Teachers are not entitled to break the rules based on their preferences.[/quote] Semester Exams are allowed. They just aren't a separate 10% grade like they used to be. They have to be part of the All/Task Assessment category and cannot be more than 25% of the total pts in that category. Portfolios, Final projects and final papers are still allowed as well as long as they follow the above.[/quote]
