[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She is sick and feeling terrible. If she misses two quizzes this week, is there a way to make them up?

(maybe she’ll feel better tomorrow or Wednesday, just thinking ahead and trying to understand)[/quote]

There should be NO new assignments or grades this week which is the last week of school and not even a full week of school. Whoever is assigning assignments should not be.[/quote]

MCPS already cut 5 days out of the school year due to weather.  You want them to cut another 4 for "the last week of school"?[/quote]

Based on the grading policy they created that clearly states we are supposed to have zero new assignments within 5 days of the end of the MP, yes.[/quote]

Define “assignments”. Does that include tests or quizzes for previously assigned materials?

MCPS made numerous mistakes in canceling school this past winter. Teachers must cover the curriculum in the time remaining. If a family has a vacation or other plans during the last week of school, that’s on them. If a student is sick, then it’s up to the teacher and school policy. [/quote]

The MCPS policy is really unclear. I’m a HS teacher and I’m not fully sure what the policy is. They’ve also made many changes since it was first rolled out so now everyone is doing whatever because no one fully knows what exactly we are supposed to do. Typical MCPS. [/quote]
