[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The 50% rule officially reads: The following grading practices are prohibited: Assigning a grade lower than 50 percent to a task/assessment. However, if a student does no work on the task/assessment, the teacher will assign a zero. If a teacher determines the student did not attempt to meet the basic requirements of the task/assessment or the student engaged in academic dishonesty, the teacher may assign a zero. I have taught at schools where we could never give below a 50%. Others that say that we can give a zero if we had two way communication with the parents about a missing assignment. https://ww2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/policy/pdf/ikara.pdf [/quote] So I respond to your first email only...my kid gets a 50. If I respond to your second email he gets a 0. If I were a teacher I would only rarely bother to contact a parent.[/quote]
