[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let the haters hate, but I was going through my child's report card from last year and realized her Science final exam grade in June was never posted.  She took it but got an X.  What is an X?  She took it.  Oh well.  Guess I should have looked closer at the report cards that came home while we were on vacation.  Didn't matter much anyway.  Wouldn't have changed her final grade at all.  But definitely someone screwed up in the data entry.[/quote]

How does it not affect the final grade?  Even if the 2 quarter grades are As she still needs at least a C on the final right?  Or does x just not count at all?  Even when my DCs in AP classes and they don't have a final during exam week in the 2nd semester they still seem to have some project that counts as the final. [/quote]

She got the same grade on her report card for all four quarters.  I think the exam only counts if you have different grades for the 1st or 2nd quarters or the 3rd or 4th quarters.

It was a middle school grade, so not too much weighted on it.  Just a note to watch these things closer in the future.  Mistakes do happen.

Which brings up the question, if kids and parents are not reviewing exams grades, say a B is posted instead of the earned A, are these data entry mistakes ever caught?  I might request to look at exams just to ensure the correct grade is posted particularly in high school where grades go on a child's transcript.[/quote]
