[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a little sad about this, because my kid is the kid that the original policy was likely intended for - a HFA/ADHD kid in regular classes who tends to struggle with the faster pace of HS. He does well in some classes, but others like math and science, he really needs the extra help sometimes. It never occurred to me that kids were retaking at a 92. (I honestly thought the original grade had to be below an 80) Because actual tests are infrequent and maybe one or two a quarter, if my kid gets a 62 the entire quarter is a loss. The fact that he does pretty well on the smaller chunk quizzes and schoolwork doesn’t really count for anything. [/quote] But your kid can still retake a 62 and turn it into an 80[/quote]
