[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The teacher in a public high school is not going to fail everyone. There's a thing called a grading curve you use when this happens. [/quote] Formally, MCPS specifically and vehemently forbids grade curving. So no, that can't be done in MCPS, for better or worse. Now what can happen is that suddenly the teacher remembers that the 50 point test was supposed to be worth 90 points, and that those additional 40 points were for spelling your name correctly at the top of the page. That happens; and sadly, there are also always a few students who miss those extra points as well. [/quote]
