[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 6th grader has a Technology elective this quarter and the teacher is not posting grades for 2-3 weeks at a time. First month of the quarter there were no grades posted or entered. Then one day during at the beginning of December, weeks of grades show up and my daughter has 4 missing assignments that average her grade out to a D. She found the missing assignments and turned them in. She also asked the teacher the next day if she would be able to get credit and the teacher said that he would "grade them and put them in." Here we are three weeks later and there are no assignments for December listed or graded in the system and the missing assignments that my daughter turned in weeks ago are still showing as missing. Her grade is still a D. I'm concerned that the closer we get to report card time, we won't have clarity on where she stands with her grade since they're not being put in for weeks at a time. She's a really good student and does well in her classes, so she's also concerned about her grades. I've emailed the teacher with no response. The principal said that she would "handle it." But we're not getting any movement. Am I being unreasonable in wanting grades updated more than once every 3 weeks? This class is only 1 quarter long, so we only have until the end of January to resolve this.[/quote]

Four missing assignments means that you need to work with her on executive management.  That is the more important issue.[/quote]

+1 yes the overburdened teacher should submit grades more often but focus on what you can change OP.  It’s very difficult to get a D in MCPS and your kid needs better skills on handing stuff in.[/quote]

Different teachers handle grading differently.  In our school it’s easy to get a c or d.  [/quote]
