[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS official policy is that all students must have the ability to earn up to 100% at least twice on summative assignments (whether through retakes or grade replacement) and that the highest score stands. Grades cannot be dropped if you do worse. Grades cannot be averaged. If a teacher is doing this, they are not following the mandate we were all given at the beginning of the year. -hs teacher[/quote] Does this apply to IB classes as well? If so, game changer.[/quote] Great question. If it does apply, it can only affect the FCPS grade. IB isn’t going to allow retakes on its assessments, the ones used to actually determine the IB score and whether a student gets college credit. I can easily see a student getting an A in the class because of this policy, but then failing the IB assessments.[/quote]
