[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How different is rigor even if grade scale is the same?[/quote] No retakes, zeros if work is turned in late, expectations are much higher, and consequences for behavior. That’s the difference and that’s what parents pay tuition for. Sad that you have to pay for this now. Public schools used to be like this. [/quote] This starts in elementary. We just started entrance process into a Catholic from our coveted K-2 and it’s really night and day. The Catholic school mailed us a summer work packet (to be graded at home and turned in on the first day of school!). I can’t imagine requiring all kids to do grade level math over the summer, not to mention trying to collect work packets from families at our public on the very first day of school. [/quote]
