[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I don’t put in a 50 (or a 0), kids don’t take it. (“But not my kid!” Okay, but 90% of kids) It’s just a reminder to come take it. I can’t email and follow up with the 4 kids in each class period who missed for various reasons (some legit, some not).

If you’re doing rolling gradebook by this point in the year there should be a minimum of 6 summative assignments, likely more, so even a 0 isn’t going to bring an A to a C (though I understand it could bring an A to a B)

Have your child email the teacher and arrange a time to take it NOW, before the end of the quarter, and explain the predicament about honor roll. Might work, might not. I’d be willing to fudge the grade for the report card and put it back after.[/quote]

[b]My kid is too sick to email at this point.[/b] I emailed the teachers to let them know. The teacher reached out to me to explain the penalty. I asked if there was anything they could do. The teacher will not budge. Seems overly harsh. Kid is an A student.[/quote]

Wow. That is extremely sick.[/quote]
