[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wilson teachers are tone-deaf. We have a major research paper due- the date has been moved up and a unit assessment test this Friday.  Why is there such a disconnect between admin and teachers? [/quote]

You can be assigned a paper.  But you can turn it in without penalty until May 29.  And your teacher has to offer extra credit of equal weight to that paper.  They are not supposed to give assessments.  Email the principal and the superintendent.  They have been very clear about the grading policies around types of assignments.[/quote]

You can turn it in without penalty until May 29. The last day for students and staff is May 29.

DCPS IS CLUELESS and will remain so until parents actually open their mouths and complain. The 4th advisory grading policy is dense and confusing. They expect teachers to do be math and technology experts instead of setting the grading system in Aspen up properly.[/quote]

I agree with most of this except the math expert part. As long as for every credit assignment you have an extra credit assignment in the same category for equal points then you are good to go.  Now changing Aspen settings at this point is insane.  And the density of the policy is absurd as well.[/quote]
