While public schools allow kids to keep pre Covid grades if they do nothing and add points for doing basic work, local, private schools are taking grades as if nothing has happened. My kid is working every day and will be at a disadvantage in college application GPA. We should have transferred at spring break. Good luck getting next year’s tuition out of us.

Four have consistently picked up take home paper packets. <br />To be fair, most students do not have access to internet or devices. <br />So how the state and the school district expect the majority of these students will participate in online learning is a mystery. <br />But it looks good on the MDE Website and Governor Tate Reeves,Facebook. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-3499896895384212212020-04-28T13:01:12.038-05:002020-04-28T13:01:12.038-05:00Dumber kids will mean more Republican votes down t...Dumber kids will mean more Republican votes down the line.

So sad to see what WE as a people have become. Now the government tells us who we can associate with, what businesses can be open, whether we can worship or not.

It's the fault of the parents if Johnny isn't doing his school work. Take some responsibility folks and do something you apparently have never done before. PARENT!

But there are also those that aren't doing much of anything. And as she says, this is not a whole lot different than the classroom.<br /><br />The Governor can't make your kids do their work, or your neighbor's kids do theirs. He can't come to your house and check up on them to see if they are doing their homework, just as he can't go into the classrooms.<br /><br />Suck it up, snowflake. If your kid isn't doing his work, he/she's the one that loses. If your spouse's students aren't doing their work, then they should properly note their records as they would if they were in the classroom. <br /><br />Last time I checked, the Governor doesn't control the State Board of Education, the Local School Board, your School Superintendent, or your school's principal. Or your spouse teacher.<br /><br />Its going to be like everything else in this world - those that do, learn.
