Oh, that's lame too then.  If I made a mistake on something and it was a conceptual error (as opposed to just a dumb mistake), I would need to actually look at it.  And maybe ask a question or too.  This is basic pedagogy.  This is a horrible policy.[/quote]

They go over the tests in class.[/quote]

So?  They don't go over each individual kid's mistake in class.  A general go-over is fine, but not good enough.  I need to understand MY conceptual error, not just hear the answer explained again.  
My God.  I can't believe this is something people are actually defending.  Well, then again, there's a whole thread going on about how it's fine to beat your children so they don't end up criminals, so this shouldn't be so surprising.[/quote]

This really isn't as hard as you all make it sound.  Each test/quiz has a study guide.  You can go on Edline and print them out.  You can go on Edline and get your child's score.  If your child didn't do well on a test or a quiz, then you can e-mail the teacher and ask what part of the subject matter your child missed.  Then you pull out the study guide and work with your child on that material.  This is a discussion that happens every year.  The policy isn't going to change.  You have to figure out how to work within the system or go elsewhere.  [/quote]
