[QUOTE="Belen, post: 9636698, member: 1405"] You should hear about my first grader. Before her first report card, we had a meeting with the teacher. She raved about our daughter and how she was already doing second and third grade work. When we got her first report card, she got all P's (or progressing to meet expectations.) When we talked to her teacher, we found that is was district policy to not give high marks on the first assessment because students had to show progress throughout the school year. So, my daughter met all her end of year first grade expectations by the end of Q1. The teacher started giving her second and third grade level reading and math assignments as of Q3 when she started getting M's or meets expectation grades on her assessment. My Mom was a school admin for 25 years so I know schools and education is a bit of a joke compared to the 80s and 90s. The school district and the schools my kids attend are some of the highest rated in the state. I have talked to school admin. They are following district policies. [/QUOTE]
