No word on end of marking period for Red Clay

November 1, 2012

Red Clay was closed due to the storm on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and is back today (except for McKean HS which is still without power).

As it stands now, the first marking period ended on Wednesday October 31 and has not yet been extended. Individual teachers are offering ad hoc extensions on individual projects, but students really need a District decision. It is important to have an official public communication so parents, teachers, and students are all on the same page.

For example, if a test was scheduled for Tuesday but is given on Friday or even next week, which marking period does it count in? Will the teacher have to report a backdated test date to make it fit into the previous marking period? It can make a letter-grade difference.
