[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My High schooler has all of 5 grades in her history class for the whole marking period? Can this possibly be correct? I emailed the teacher a week ago and no response. Daughter reached out to the teacher and the response was "I have been doing this a long time, you just have to trust me" (I think this response is utter nonsense, but thats a whole other issue)[/quote]

DCPS teacher here. That is a violation of the contract and the grading policy, yes. Aspen won’t even allow final term grades to post with that few entries.

I do my best to stay on top of my grades. I’ve read some truly horrifying examples here that would anger me too, as a parent. I’ve also read some very entitled comments that anger me, as a teacher

We’re in the midst of a teaching shortage. Most of us who teach at Title 1 schools regularly lose planning/grading periods in the day to cover classes. (This also means that, as a postpartum mom, I lose my pumping break.) One way parents could help would be to put pressure on central office for subs and better pay for subs. [/quote]
