[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lake Braddock is now touting that it’s working towards implementing “equity grading”? Obviously that’s a buzzword that sounds anti-merit and already has dozens of parents furious. And the people at LBSS who tout this seem to be trying to sing to a choir other parents, like perhaps to the new superintendent. But what does it really mean? Willing to listen if someone can explain what the positives are, but otherwise increasingly inclined to pull my kids out of FCPS.[/quote] [b]Why is grading for equity important? It's about giving every student second chances, and third chances, and more, to learn. It's about giving every student hope. This is equity-based grading—grading in a way that is fair and transparent to students, parents, teachers, everybody.[/b][i] LBSS has over 2,000 high schoolers. A few dozens snowflakes mean nothing. Stop complaining. Good riddance to you! [/quote]
