[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd rather just report numbers. Kid got an 89.4 If we did that, I wouldn't have 14 emails asking me to "please just bump up the grade a little" or "can I please have some extra credit?" at the end of every year. But at the end of the day, colleges all recalculate anyway. If it's that important, the year isn't over yet, work towards getting it up to a 92.5 so it rounds up to an A.[/quote] Why on earth would you round up? The threshold for getting an A is 93%. Did the 92.5% student reach that threshold? No, than s/he gets an A-.[/quote] It is how the gradebook in FCPS is set automatically. 92.4 = A-, 92.5 = A. It's the same for all grades (88.4/88.5, etc) --FCPS teacher[/quote] but if they have 59% now they will ask up to round up to D-. it used to be 61-62% average.. [/quote]
