[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had this issue with an English teacher. She clearly had bias against male students who were more jock or macho. We ran all the work through chatghpt and even had my colleague who has an advance degree in English  review my child's work and no one could understand why it was being failed. We switched out of the class after complaining to the principal and [b]it was acknowledged that the teacher was a problem but since they had been here for years nothing could be done to get rid of them or tell them to grade more fairly[/b]. We also almost filed a foia to get all the class grades because from talking with other parents this particular teacher was failing a lot of students and [b]there was no way the curve is distributed properly[/b]. Furthermore from talking to other fcps teacher there is a lot of pressure if giving an f to a student because the teacher will need to remediate and would be reprimanded for so many fs however this teacher has gotten away with it for years and there is something behind the scenes going on with the teacher and the administration, [b]we suspect because the teacher is of some type of dei marginalized group as observed by pride flags and social media of their same sex partner. Since fcps is quite liberal and now fully teacher unionized we decided to just pursue switching classes and magically the grade went from fs to as because the problem was the teacher. [/b]We also didn't want to spend time in litigation and drag our child through all that so at the end of the day it would be better to switch out. There are websites like rate my teacher and word of mouth of which teachers to avoid however the schools don't reveal which teachers will be in which classes when you register the year before so you have to keep a close eye on it.[/quote]

1. This never happened. No administrator on the planet would ever state this to a parent.
2. There is no curve in high school courses. The whole class could earn As or Fs or a mix of all letter grades and if there is data to back it up it will stand
3. You're insane.

Don't get me wrong, there are bad teachers, but no one is giving Fs to all kids because they are queer and no admin supports this behavior simply because the teacher is a minority.[/quote]
