[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the kind words and advice.

DD took the SAT this weekend and is trying to move on by putting this behind her. No, she did not talk to teacher to find out more about whether the F was for the assignment or for the quarter.  She does not want to talk about this experience anymore.

[b]I did tell her the majority view in this forum and that many told me that the operation of the rule is that even if she got copied by someone without her consent and knowledge, both parties would be deemed to have violated the honor code.  Personally, I still don't think that is a fair rule, but we will follow the rule to avoid getting caught up in a bad situation in the future.

I took a look at the report card again, it is a "progress report" card that I cannot find in the SIS.  This one lists out the individual assignments (thus far in the quarter) with different points assigned to each assignment. This is something I can only get through emails from the teachers.  I used to get one from most teachers from time to time. This year I only get it from one teacher. I do not know how the F at the top was calculated.  If someone knows how to get this from SIS, please let me know how to step by step.

In SIS, the latest I can see is the second quarter.  There is a notation that the Interim for third quarter will end on March 15.  So by my calculation, there are not many assignments left to move the grade in any meaningful way. It seems to me that the most I can hope for is a D for the third quarter.[/quote]

OP, no, you're still twisting things a bit. She should not have shared work that had been graded for accuracy to another student who had not yet turned in the assignment. How can she not realize that that is giving another student answers that are clearly correct as they have been graded? How can YOU think that rule is not fair? As a teacher, if I have to give students a makeup quiz, they get a completely different quiz than the first one for this reason- once I've handed it back, the answers are out there. So I make a new quiz. But for an open assignment that still had time to be completed and turned in, your daughter GAVE another student the correct answers. That IS violating the honor code. I'm not sure why you are being so cagey about that. You come very close to admitting your daughter just messed up, and it happens, it's not the end of the world, but you never quite get there because you want to let her weasel out under some idea that the honor code is just not very fair or well written.[/quote]
