[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear what you’re saying, but a 50 is still a failing grade. If a kid does 2 assignments and earns an A on the first and an E on the second, I think it makes sense that it averages to a C, which only happens in this scenario. (95 + 0 /2= E vs 95 + 50/2 = C). I question the semester grades more. My DD only wants to work hard for the 1st and 3rd quarters because once she has earned an A, she can relax for the 2nd and 4th quarters.[b] I hate that![/b][/quote] Same here![/quote] I'm a parent who thinks this approach is more of a smart strategy to succeed in school and enjoy life. To each her/his/their own.[/quote]
