[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I emailed a teacher for the first time this week. No reply (about 3 days ago). I am not upset but I would be a bit more impressed if she did reply..even if it were just to say I need to get back to you when I can access my files (though I think it was a very simple question)[/quote]

Teachers can occasionally miss emails; their email volume is pretty high and from what I hear the MCPS email system can drop messages from time to time. I don't think it's inappropriate to send a "just a ping to make sure you got my last message" after a few days.[/quote]

Teacher here-please do this! We get so many emails and occasionally I open one, read it, but don't have time to reply at that moment and just forget it in the daily whirlwind.[/quote]

So what do you do when a student forgets to do something because of the same excuse you are saying?  Just curious[/quote]

In MCPS, you do nothing. It's not even worth giving a late penalty when you know that a kid didn't even try the assignment until a week after it was due. And, if you are even thinking about not accepting work that is weeks past the deadline, give up. The parents will bully the principal into forcing you to grade it.[/quote]
