[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, teens know that they can still earn A’s when they skip classes. There’s zero school consequence as long as their work gets turned in (can be late- no problem). I can punish at home, but it would be so much easier to have a partnership with the school where our priorities are aligned. Natural consequences would be about grades and/or loss of credit. Not losing a phone. I want to get my child ready for college away from me, and MCPS’s policies actually make that more challenging.

P.s. Are you going to follow your child to college and give consequences there, too? [/quote]

You can sit there and complain or move your kid to a school that has actual rules and consequences just like the real world. Public schools are working on equity so I gave up on them. Equity won’t help students in the real world. They show up to work late, they get tired.  They continue to turn in work late, they get fired. Switch your kid now so they will learn how the real work works. [/quote]
I get the sense they're more interested in optics than actual equity that's why they focus more on dumbing down standards then raising up struggling students.[/quote]
