Yes, some students are failing. Find a way to hide the problem by raising their grades. PLEASE DO NOT LOWER STANDARDS for kids who can keep up. Why does MCPS have to screw up every kid???[/quote]

How are your kids harmed by additional flexibility in due dates and an optional (instead of required) winter MAP?[/quote]

Some students clearly need firm deadlines. They will wait until the last week to throw together 7 of the 9 assignments allowed.[/quote]

There will be firm deadlines in school again. Kids will not suffer permanent damage from flexible deadlines during distance learning during a pandemic.[/quote]

They already are[/quote]

What permanent damage have kids suffered from flexible vs firm deadlines in Q1 of the 2020-2021 school year during distance learning?[/quote]

You cannot learn a quarter´s worth of math in one week. The flexible deadline is actually turn it in by the end of the quarter. Students who wait to learn math until the end of the quarter do not actually learn it. They pass because of the overall grade inflation which is rampant throughout MCPS with the possible exception of the W schools. [/quote]
