[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a requirement to offer one per marking period. However, even as a fellow teacher, I was unable to get one particular English teacher to comply. I documented her refusal. Sent it to the department head and grade level administrator. Nothing ever happened. [/quote] Maybe focus your efforts on getting your kid to study the first time. No wonder there’s a teacher shortage. [/quote] Again, I myself is a teacher. Providing one retakable assessment a marking period —as required by MCPS— is not causing anyone to exit teaching who shouldn’t leave anyway. In my child’s case, she was a straight A student overall. It was excessively stressful to have a teacher refuse any makeups all year. The result was a ninth grader petrified to miss even a few days of instruction for death of her grandfather and Lyme disease. [/quote]
