[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are grades final at this point? What we are seeing in parent view are final grades and shouldn’t really change at this point? Looks like our HS is still doing 50% for All Task grades which surprised me since I thought MCPS got rid of it [/quote]

It’s 50% if you turn something in. 0 if you don’t.[/quote]

At the highschool where I teach, we are strongly encouraged to give 50% for assignments that were never turned in [/quote]

Strongly encouraged by who and why?  How is it helpful to students?[/quote]

Let’s just say we are coerced by administrators and principal to give 50% for assignments that were never submitted. The administrators at my school are masters of spin. I don’t believe they really care about the students all that much as most of them are focused on moving up the ladder as fast as possible [/quote]

I know you can’t name the school, but what are the demographics and/or reputation of the school? From what you know, is this pretty common among all schools?[/quote]
