[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the math 7 honors teachers at Franklin announced to the class there would be no retakes on this latest math test (taken just this Monday) because it’s too close to the end of the quarter. That is complete bs and against policy. We also use a rolling gradebook so that does not matter one bit. These are the kind of teachers I am talking about at Franklin.

Another teacher responded to my child, “what do you want me to do,” when my child told them about a technological issue they were having. Finally, kids aren’t allowed to take their composition notebooks home to study for quizzes and tests. They must stay in the classroom.

Does this make sense??[/quote]

I am surprised that they are using composition notebooks, our kid has binders with regular three-hole punch paper in it.

If your kid needs retakes in Math 7H then you should be thinking about dropping to Math 7. I would be more concerned that my kid needs retakes in honors math then that the retake might not be offered.[/quote]

My child is relating to me what the teacher said about retakes. It only matters to me because it’s against policy, even if my own child doesn’t actually need a retake. Bu what if my my child got an 85 and wants to try for a 90 to boost their quarter grade?[/quote]
