[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since when do parents monitor their middle and high school age students' assignments? Unless there was a serious problem that involves a learning disability, it should be the student's responsibility. Students need to take responsibility for their own assignments and grades. This is an important step toward adulthood.

I'm positive my parents NEVER knew what my grades and test scores were except for at report card time. This SIS system sounds like a case of enabling over-parenting anyway.

If your child really needs that much supervision you should at least leave it up to your student (not the teacher) to let you know what grades he/she is getting on assignments, test, projects. At least that's a little responsibility for the student to take. Do you not even trust your child to tell you that? [/quote]

The KIDS DON'T KNOW EITHER!  It's not available to them.

You have no idea what is going on and why it may be necessary to monitor grades.  Get off your soapbox and keep your opinions to yourself until you can speak from a point of experience -- not your experience growing up.[/quote]
