[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, what makes something a policy? My understanding is that the justification has nothing to do with the pandemic and that the application schools are exempt...and will continue to be exempt. Can they say it's not "policy" indefinitely while at the same time imposing it on almost all schools?[/quote] The justification DCPS gave had to do with the pandemic- they claimed everyone had to do the 4x4 so virtual students could simulcast in different classes and so kids could come back after being virtual for the semester. What posters have stated, which is the real truth, is that 4x4 makes it easier to graduate. But again DCPS isn’t putting out edicts about this. They have conversations directly with principals. And the exemptions given were hard fought- walls and Banneker didn’t automatically get exempt, they had to work their way up to the DCPS chain with appeals to get the exemption. Perhaps because graduation rates aren’t a problem at those schools DCPS gave the exemption. I’m not sure why. But it wasn’t just automatic.[/quote]
