[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems that OP is the only one opposed, lol. I’m strongly for these immediate changes.[/quote] What grade is your kid in? I’m fine with this for my 7th grader when she starts HS, but not okay with it for my 10th grader. It’s just not fair to these kids to change the rule on how semester grades are calculated halfway through HS. [/quote] You mean to take away their grade inflation? Relax. It will probably positively impact college admissions since the college profile sheet for your high school will indicate the new grading system (making it look like the school doesn’t have massive grade inflation). Meanwhile your kid gets to keep their massively inflated grades for the first two years. PS the MCPS is probably realizing that colleges are over their massively inflated grading system and it’s hurting smart kids’ admissions.[/quote]
