[quote=Anonymous][quote] The real issue is the updated grading policy. A lot of these kids have below a 20% 1st quarter or certainly below 50% so it makes it almost impossible for them to pass a course now. So, they don’t bother going to class. MCPS had no plan to deal with this.[/quote] Last MCPS kid of mine graduated last year but I have a bunch of friends who teach at MCPS. I was wondering how the new grading was going to affect behavior. Students roaming the halls, being loud, refusing to follow directions and the like has been a problem for kids at many (all?) HSs and getting worse over the years. And fights are nothing new or even special in HS. There really hasn’t been sufficient tools to handle the wandering. And the grading policy seems to have taken away any little bit of incentive. I hope MCPS finds an answer. I feel like it’s got to include Discipline and consequences as well as finding program options that will make all kids successful in HS. [/quote]
