[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids that are feeling the effects of this new policy the hardest are the 9th graders. They spent the last 3 years in a system that had zero academic consequences. They were conditioned to "lock in" for the last 4-5 days of the Marking Period to salvage their grades. I cannot tell you the amount of e-mails I have received from students and parents begging and pleading for grades to somehow jump 15-20% over this final week. Its sad but they desperately need this wake up call.[/quote] This is true. And then these kids kept doing the exact same thing as they got older. Tuning out most of the quarter and then turning in a bunch of assignments at the end. They weren’t learning anything. [/quote]
