[quote=Anonymous]Students will get all Bs and As in my class, miss or fail one summative, and their grade immediately drops to a D or F. This disproportionately seems to affect my students that are English Learners or have IEPs (and yes, these are the grades even with every accommodation made). Also, only the kids with really involved parents are opting for retakes. A student in my home room is failing math, I encouraged him to retake his most recent test: “Eh I don’t want to.” Meanwhile I can give a different kid an A- and they schedule a retake with me the second the grade is posted.
