In Our Schools - Pittsburgh PA Public Schools
Maybe I'm too old-fashioned, but I don't like this idea...
Joe Smydo reports in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:
"'The 'E' is to be recorded no lower than a 50 percent, regardless of the actual percent earned. For example, if the student earns a 20 percent on a class assignment, the grade is recorded as a 50 percent,' said the memo from Jerri Lippert, the district's executive director of curriculum, instruction and professional development, and Mary VanHorn, a PFT vice president."
