[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is Madison going to continue skills-based grading with the new change to the re-assessment policy? Seems unfair to make kids retake the same skill three times now and only have previous “skills” be replaced to 90. I’m thinking this will most affect math where the skills actually are repeated. More room for interpretation in the other classes since the skills aren’t actually being retested, they are more for show. [/quote] Madison continued using SBG this year in a way that was different even from the other schools using SBG in FCPS. Try to get anyone at Madison to explain it to you the same way and teachers still implement it differently. Nothing will change except for continued tweaks to "comply" with FCPS. The parents at Madison are mostly some combination of oblivious or indifferent to this issue and the admin has done a great job of limiting conversation around the topic. [/quote]
