[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been following this thread and saw the post on the McLean High end of quarter debacle. The same happened at Madison—sounds like the end of quarter tests are coming from the AP curriculum which the teachers are not following/not yet familiar with. I hope the Madison teachers do some sort of credit recovery as well for the kids. [/quote] i am PP and in addition to school-level consistency - they also need to work on district level consistency. I see another PP mention a curve - they could have totally done it in this class (although that does not fix some students getting more time than others on portions of the test). i do not understand why this isn't utilized more heavily at the high school level. I think the teachers are actually quite bad at setting up grading (over many classes/subjects and in middle and high school alike). a test that's a huge portion of the grade that's literally a zero or a 100%? GTFO. anyways, yes, precalc at mclean is a debacle. i also hate the fill in the notes style of class - i have just provided my child with the link to the openstax book so they can have a textbook. i do not think t teachers are assigning problem sets of any length or variation. and if they miss a class oh well i guess - there's literally zero reference material except these silly empty notes pages.[/quote]
