[quote=Anonymous]My HS freshman has less test anxiety because of this policy. She knows that if she messes up, she has the opportunity to correct. She’s taking an online course where every test has the opportunity for retake, and the scores are averaged. She’s starting behind the kids that had taken previous series of the course with this teacher, and had a bit of a rough start. Yet, she did not redo any of her tests, just worked really hard on the subsequent ones to bring up her grades. She will likely never use the FCPS retake policy. I do wonder how the kids that put their teachers through the extra work for a point here and there will fare when it comes time to ask for LOR for their college applications. [/quote]
