[quote=Anonymous][quote]I agree with a PP that a narrative, child specific evaluation that tells the child's strengths and suggestions on how to improve would be a lot more useful. The current report card sends the kids a wrong message: No matter how much effort you put or no matter how smart you are, you will get at most P. That's a sure way to discourage and suppress truely gifted, high achiever kids. [/quote] +1 This isn't good for kids with learning problems either. My DS is very strong in some subjects but much weaker in others. He has been on a 504 as this stems from a learning disability. It makes no sense that he received all Ps and performed equally in all subjects unless 2.0 magically cured him. I know this isn't the case because the teacher this year has already urged us to increase his medication. This teacher isn't too keen on keeping up with the accommodations so I'm worried that her giving him all Ps is an attempt to skirt the 504. [/quote]
