[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone with unhooked kids in private, I pray this continues a few more years! But tides can turn. Private might be viewed as privileged and unattractive at any second. For now, I agree with you and can’t believe the results I’m seeing on instagram. [/quote]

It WAS viewed as the past few cycles.  Now colleges are upset by the quality of TO, grade inflated HS kids and going back to old school. [/quote]

1.  Our public fcps HS does not grade inflate.

2. Your entire comment is just your made up guesses.

Re-takes? Multiple bites/tries to raise grade ? Lack of pop quizzes? Hard deadlines? We left a FCPS Hs and all of that was there. Private was much more rigorous. [/quote]

Correcting the record.  For college bound kids (so honors and AP courses)

Re-takes allowed but the max you can get if your get 100% on the retake is 80.  This is to keep kids from failing.  Not to get them A’s.

Pop quizzes are in some of my HS kid’s classes but not all.  However pop quizzes are in NONE of my T5 kid’s classes.  This whole year.  So what does that say?

Hard deadlines.  At my kid’s FCPS school, this is absolutely not true.  They start docking assignments past the due date. [/quote]
