[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If students are receiving HS credit for Algebra 1 they need to be being taught by a teacher who is either secondary math certified or has an Algebra 1 add-on endorsement. Are we sure that is the case in all these 6th grade Algebra 1 classes this year?[/quote]

Most of the teachers in ES do not have a certification for teaching algebra, they are supposed to be working on getting those this year. So the teachers who have added a HS class have had to add additional professional development to their schedules.

OP: If you read any of the FCPS threads you will see that there are teachers who are bad about entering grades across all the MS and HS, it doesn't seem to be something that is going to change. DS is in MS and has had grades entered regularly, we have not had an issue, but I believe the people posting that their kids teachers are not recording grades. It does seem to be school dependent, i.e. there is a Principal that doesn't seem to be willing to enforce keeping the gradebook updated. I understand your frustration.
