[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid is old enough to be in A2, your kid can talk to the teacher and see if there is something that they can do to earn the extra .1-- extra credit, test corrections or the like. In DC's school, some teachers will give extra work or just bump closed grades because they take pity on your kid-- although that might depend on whether you kid gave 100% vs missing the cutoff because of a lot of missing homework.  Some teachers will not bump grades ever.  It is entirely teacher dependent and entirely the teacher's call.

Your kid can try. But, he should ask for extra work, and not just a grade bump.  And it must be your kid who talks to the teacher and works it out.  You need to stay out of it. And under no circumstances do you go over the teacher's head.  You want the principal or counselor to do what-- change the FCPS grading scale?  Your kid earned an A-  Good lesson for next time not to cut it so close. [/quote]

This is all great advice. Go on SIS and see if there were any missing assignments or anything specific that could have made the difference [/quote]

This. Ask the kid to talk to the teacher if he can do an extra assignment to get the grade up.  Geometry is a HS credit so why miss out on an A if you can help it?  [/quote]
