[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m nervous about my high school kids losing a week before APs since they are already really far behind. Wish those teachers could email out the assignments so kids could get ahead. It’s going to be brutal when they get back.[/quote] I agree that MCPS teachers should send out homework at least. Seems like they have been instructed not to do any work though.[/quote] Why aren’t more people talking about this? One DC is at W HS and the other is at private. Private school kid was given a freebie snow day on Monday, but had work Tuesday and will again today—it amounted to roughly four hours of wreading, writing, prepping for an upcoming lab, and problem sets. I get that it’s the start of the new term and many students have a new teacher even but that shouldn’t impact teachers’ ability to assign work. Not blaming the teachers as I am aware this is an mcps issue vs individual issue, but frankly it’s pathetic. I understand the upset about childcare for those with younger kids but why aren’t families with MS/HS students more upset that there kids aren’t being asked to do anything academic? [/quote] +1 My kid is in early elementary and while I don't love homework it is part of our routine. I am kind of surprised they didn't send out the next assignment. Clearly a systemwide policy [/quote]
