[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In MCPS during covid, you automatically earned one grade higher than your grade pre-covid. So if you got a B previously you earned an A. This led to inflated GPAs.[/quote] I think you are mis-stating what the policy was temporarily changed to, for only the spring 2020 semester final grade: "For the 4th Marking Period (MP4), middle and high schools will continue to use a Pass/Incomplete grading system, based on established criteria. By passing the 4th Marking Period, high school students will be able to earn a semester grade in each course that is one letter grade higher than the grade they received at the end of the 3rd Marking Period (MP3). If a student selects the option of receiving a letter grade, the final semester grade will then be reported on the transcript and factored into the cumulative grade point average (GPA)."[/quote]
