[quote=Anonymous]So my DS who's in AP English told me that his teacher doesn't have time to grade all of the students' homework assignments, so the other half are graded by a teaching assistant. Apparently the "assistant" isn't a certified teacher. DS says that assignments coming back from the assistant are graded but contain almost no comments. These are compositions, not multiple choice or short answer type things. And this is AP English. I was surprised to hear about this and don't feel it's right, although I imagine it can be very time consuming for one teacher to grade all of the homework for so many kids. Anyone else encountered this? We are new to MCPS so I don't know if this is a common practice here. It wasn't in DS's last school.[/quote]
