[quote=Anonymous][quote]Yes. It’s confusing for all of us. In the PP looking at private schools and my DC has one of the lower GPAs and an IEP. It’s not about equity unless it’s about confusion and stress for all.[/quote]

I feel like pulling my kids too, but I'm going to try to do what I can to push back on this. Contact your SB member, Meren is aware of this issue. Contact instructional services - mlgillespie1@fcps.edu. Ask about this high school assessment & grading survey. FCPA has had meetings with Reid on lack of consistency in grading across FCPS and "equity grading." Reid has mentioned starting a committee to look into it. Consider emailing Reid directly. Show up at PTSA meetings and ask questions. I feel like giving up and going private too, but this is my community, my kids were happy here, I'm going to try to do what I can.

But I hear you. It was really hard for me to hear Calvert say this year was a disaster at principal chat because it's 25% of my kids' high school education. Another year and that's half. It's unbelievable.
