[quote=Anonymous]The principal at my high school was mad that the average for 2nd quarter was only a C and that minorities had much lower grades. Data chat after data chat department heads said it was because of attendance issues, and students taking advantage of the grading system if they already had a passing grade first term. It seems like the school often has no middle. Students with supports and plans in life are getting A’s and B’s. Other students are struggling to show up and are perfectly fine passing with a D thanks to the 50% rule. There is literally no policy preventing this. There are rumors that the board of Ed is going to tweak the grading or attendance rules to discourage this situation, but I think it won’t be very strong.[/quote]
