47 times? The article isn't about mistakes in recording. It is about massive unexcused absences that show that students don't actually have to attend MCPS to graduate. The article devalues MCPS diplomas for all students.

It's a pretty fair system if kids who miss school are held accountable to prove themselves with their grades. It actually teaches responsibility and is better preparation for college than denying graduation due to absences. Good for MCPS.[/quote]

Wow you are dumber than a rock. These kids are not earning the grades or proving themselves! Teachers are pushed to inflate grades ON TOP of MCPS policies that will give them 50% for just putting their name into something. In addition, teachers are told to strike out 0 grades for things where the kid couldn't even be bothered to try. The teacher is pushed to "reteach" and pass a kid who has barely been in class and is nowhere close to proficient or passing on their own.

This is solely about making MCPS better than it is by pumping up the graduation rate. [/quote]
