[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for your response. How was your child's transition to 6th?

This teacher flat out stated that she is not going to send any graded work home. I get that some are disorganized, but do I need to accept that?

I will ask about her Map-M scores as they were not sent home this year.[/quote]

PP you responded to.

My son is transitioning very well, because he's been placed in MCPS's gifted and learning disabled program, which better suits his needs. Homework counts for 10% of the grade and needs to be turned in daily. He has all As so far. Teachers update Edline, the online grade and assignments website, once a week minimum, and parents have their own password and can check their child's progress. Such a nice change from elementary school! I have heard that in some other middle schools, teachers are not as compliant in their use of Edline.

As for your teacher's statement, I would take the matter up with the principal, because this doesn't seem to be in the best interest of the children, but more a sign that the teacher is really lazy. How are students and their parents supposed to correct their mistakes and evaluate their progress during the year? This is the year before middle school and a smooth transition is important.
