[quote=Anonymous]An overly robust appeals process verges very close to an application process after the fact, which is exactly what MCPS is trying to avoid at this level. Appealing on the grounds of actual errors made is one thing; appealing because someone thinks (for example) that the grade 5 teacher was overly hard in awarding a B grade in first-quarter writing is a slippery slope. I'm not saying that parents and guardians wouldn't want to go to bat for their kids, only that it is not in the interest of a system operating on this scale to introduce back-scrutiny at this level. Major questions of equity would also arise.[/quote]
