[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so relieved to see this thread. I don't feel so alone now!

The inconsistency of teacher implementation of the grading / due dates / extended time / deadline /sync to ParentVue situation has been SO stressful for both my straight A (graduated!) senior and my hard-working+IEP student in middle school. I check ParentVue every day - sometimes twice - and have no real sense of when grades will be put in, how the % AT vs. PP will shake out, it's just a mess. Telling my kid 5 days before the EOQ "There's a missing assignment, and according to policy, I guess you can't turn it in now" is not learning. It's just negligence.

I hope it gets better in the coming years because every conscientious student and parent are putting in way too much effort on monitoring grades that should be way more transparent. [/quote]

I completely agree. It's a mess. MCPS needs to standardize this. I don't understand why only the due date appears, and not the deadline, in Canvas/Synergy. And it would seem like MCPS could have a tech solution to automatically inform kids with accommodations of what their due date/deadline is for assignments. Just have Canvas/Synergy automatically move them up by 50%/100% based on the accommodation. [/quote]

Tell your kid to get stuff done by the due date. Deadlines should be used for emergencies. And train kids to use their phones to set calendar reminders. Kids are on their phones all the damn time[/quote]
