quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My junior has 20%+ absences overall and is tardy almost every day. In some courses, they are absent almost 50% of the time, yet they still have nearly straight As while taking all AP and DE courses. They learn most of the content on their own outside of school using AI tutoring and training, turn everything in remotely, and show up for the tests.

That is part of the problem: they do not see much value in coming to school. In fact, they feel it takes away time they could be using to study more effectively on their own.[/quote]

This is how my kid did high school.  Is now thriving at a T20.[/quote][/quote]

FCPS HS sucked the life out of my kid. Has why bother attitude after the first semester freshman year. Has lousy grades (becauee nobody really cares or come to class, his words). Lousy grades but 4s and 5s in 8 AP classes (Hes, we paid for the extras). Teachers are burnt out by the system. They could handle the environment if admin actually backed them and actually dealt with bad behavior instead of rewarding it. But that’s the way FCPS wants to handle things. [/quote]

As a system, FCPS is circling the drain.

So glad DD just graduated and we are done with this failing school system.[/quote]
