[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here.  Thanks for the responses. I don’t think it’s a math error on my side-I copy pasted the grade book data into excel because I couldn’t understand how my kid’s grade had suddenly gone from B to A and because all of their assignments were graded at near perfect scores and there were no missing assignments.

In the assignment view, my kid had 161/170 points, which is a 95 percent, but the Gradebook says my kid has a B with a 88 percent in the same assignment view.

So maybe it’s a sync issue and somehow my kid has bombed or is missing some assignments but right now-the system doesn’t add up from what I can see.

And no, I don’t want to micromanage or bring myself unnecessary anxiety if the system is prone to sync issues or incomplete info, but we’re new to MCPS and I also don’t want my kid told, “yes there was something wrong with how your grades were recorded, but it’s too late for the teacher to fix it, with the marking period end date coming up so soon…”[/quote]

Did you account for grade reductions for things that were late?  Or things not yet due or graded?

Honestly I’d have my kid talk to the teacher. If the grade is lower than she is hoping she needs to know if and how to get it up. I feel like these are regular conversations my DD has with her teachers. [/quote]
