[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach in a majority-brown-black high school. If we did not implement the 50% rule very few students would actually graduate. [/quote] I taught before the 50% rule went into effect in a school with high minority population / high FARMS rate. My students were successful. I believe all students can learn. [/quote] +1000 The original comment insinuatingly that “majority-brown-black” kids can only graduate if we give them 50% is RACIST. [/quote] Is the original poster suggesting that the 50% rule was started because minority student's can't do the work? I thought it was put into place to motivate students. Did Loss of Credit for skipping class motivate students to attend class? What type of evidence would be needed to prove that loss of credit is helpful / harmful?[/quote]
