[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A bar of 60% cumulative is low. I am surprised that if you master just over HALF of the material you can be promoted. Sounds like DCPS 2.0.[/quote] They do hold back kids in the middle school. Not a lot but there are kids who can't meet that percentage in several classes. Some do master the material a second time through and others just leave and go somewhere else. Conversely in DCPS you cannot receive a grade lower than 50% on any assignment, even if you don'y do anything beyond writing your name on the paper. And students must be given unlimited opportunities for makeup work. That's not how BASIS works, for better or worse. [/quote]
