[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 331766, member: 7083"] I don't understand how you can't give them less than a 62. That is still passing. It just boggles my mind. Our district recently did something similar, but the grade is a 42. Kids can still fail - and they should if they don't do the work. I'm sorry you're feeling so discouraged. Society needs to step up and realize what we are (not) preparing our kids for. And the rest of society needs to stop coddling the ones who just want to skate by. This is not a reflection of you. This is a reflection of a phenomenon that has been going on for decades now. This is the result. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
