[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does this lower grades? Only being assessed on major assignments is college-like. Someone said one mistake gives you a B on a test. That’s the part that’s confusing. And won’t colleges be comparing kids within the same school? [/quote]

In my kid’s class 1 wrong is a B. 2 wrong is a C. Wrong in can be a paper where something underlined should have been italicized. Done once is a B. It goes down from there. [/quote]

So they’ve raised the bar to get an A? [/quote]

I think with the broad rubrics, it’s more subjective than ever before. I wouldn’t call it raising the bar. If anything, expectations are lower. [/quote]

So it's both harder and easier.   Makes sense.[/quote]

Stfu. Clearly you don’t have high achieving kids that go there. If you don’t have kids there, skip the snark and listen. Maybe you’ll learn something. [/quote]

Seems a little disrespectful/hysterical...
