[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Lock grades” is a bit vague.

Teachers are required to submit q1 grades by 5pm Monday.

But individual teachers have different expectations.  Some locked the myMCPS grade book from new submissions on Wednesday.  Other teachers chose Friday at midnight.  I had a few students who were sick, so I kept mine open until Sunday.[/quote]

I wish more teachers would choose to (almost) finalize their grades by Wednesday because that gives students a few days to notice any errors. I like the teachers who are clear about their expectations like they will accept no late assignments after Wednesday or Thursday AND then they make sure to grade everything early too so that students are given a chance to look over the inputs to make sure they are correct. DD had a few terrible teachers last year who did not grade until hours before the grades were submitted. Students had no chance for feedback and to look over what they did wrong. One teacher was also notorious for inputting incorrect grades because she was so rushed and then there was no recourse to change them.[/quote]
