[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work at Herndon HS. Our school had SBG implemented this year. About a month ago email was sent from our principal to all staff saying the school had an event when representatives from other FCPS schools came to visit to learn about SBG. She said there was a panel of students answering questions from the guests. She said students were all very happy with SBG, mentioned better relationship with teachers, less stress, etc. I am not going to say she lied but.. to be honest, I wondered how the students were selected for the panel. Anyhow, that is apparently the message all those guests left with. Just saying. [/quote]

So what do YOU think?  Do you think SBG is as bad as the Madison posters claim, or do you think your principal is trying to suck up to Gatehouse by saying SBG is an improvement? [/quote]

Is it possible that it's implemented differently in the two schools?[/quote]

It does seem like it is mostly Madison kids and parents unhappy. Maybe other schools are using + and - grades in every class. [/quote]
