[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS was helped by the 50% rule a few times. I will say it did what the intent was. It allowed him to recover grade wise. He was generally a solid student but had some struggles. He went on to college and is a productive adult. I am OK with the 50% rule even if some kids abuse it.[/quote] As a teacher, I agree. I’m just irritated by the claims that only certain populations are benefiting from it. I teach in a MS magnet. Parents overwhelming support the 50% rule.[/quote] I think I can understand its application and probably don't mind it being abused a little by kids at the middle school level, but I think they're unnecessary and harmful training wheels at the high school level.[/quote]
