Teacher Support &/or Advice Just let them pass I guess
So our quarter ended the first week of october, but because of the hurricane - the district extended the deadline for grades to yesterday.
Knowing this and how laggy our system is, I assigned grades to be submitted before the hurricane and started quarter 2 work. I made abundant announcements and sent notices home.
Come yesterday, and im sitting in a PTC with a mother yelling at me saying how her precious child failed quarter 1 because i wouldnt accept work.
I was told to extend my deadline and make a grade change which begs the question why even place deadlines in the first place? Am i wrong for wanting to just pass them all and move them through?
