[quote=Anonymous]Glad they are doing this. I have had students earn an A for a B average (eg, 89.5 MP1 followed by a 79.5 MP2). When I was growing up in NYC, the public schools "kept the books open," meaning the quarterly grade was just a checkpoint progress report grade for the particular day that grade is issued. Later they switched to just averaging the two together and putting the numerical average on the transcript (ouch). I always thought it was a plot to get more of us to attend SUNY and CUNY schools. MCPS also surprised me with their total no -enforcement of state truancy laws or even the stated countrywide attendance policy. [/quote]
