[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so hard to fail with the 50 percent floor. If you have less than 64 with that you deserve to fail.[/quote] +1, I once had a student that was receiving a 42% in my class. That was the great before I put in the 50% minimum. After the 50% minimum‘s were added to the lower assignments, they had like a 58% in the class. That’s a big jump, if your student has a grade in the low 60s then they are not doing well and shouldn’t get a bump up.[/quote] It sounds like OP's child has severe ADHD and is in a team taught class. So before everyone decides that a 14 year old "deserves" to fail, maybe think about what the point of school is and what is best for us as a society. [/quote] If the kid needs an IEP and special grading or accommodations then that needs to already be in place. Otherwise they fail like everyone else with a failing grade.[/quote]
