[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one repeats a grade in MCPS, even with failing all classes. They are being aimed to graduate with their cohort (original year of graduation OYG) their entire school career. If they are unprepared for high school classes, they get put in remedial classes, have opportunities for summer school to retake courses, and can participate in “credit recovery” (turning in a minimum amount of work to earn a D in a failed class). Motivated kids and kids with motivated parents will do fine and recover from this year in due course. Other students that may have struggled normally will still struggle, but still have the same supports to finish.[/quote]

There are going to be massive disparities that will directly impact economic opportunities down the line. Rich kids will be prepared for college, poor kids (on average) will not. [/quote]

And yes, this is already happening, but the pandemic and our failure to provide kids with an adequate education during the pandemic will mean the se disparities but on steroids. That's not *fine".[/quote]
