[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our K-8 started allowing retakes last year and I was surprised ! I didn’t realize it was related to equity grading. They still have to submit homework on schedule but they were allowed to retake tests if they scored below a certain threshold. I complained to the school because that’s not how real life works and it’s certainly not a way to prepare kids for the real world but nothing has changed. [/quote] This is normal for middle. Most important thing is content mastery at that point. Often the new test grade can’t go above a certain grade or is an average of the two test grades. There is plenty of time to learn about the real world in HS/College. [/quote]
