THE DALLAS ISD. WHERE ALL THE WOMEN ARE STRONG, ALL THE MEN ARE GOOD LOOKING, AND ALL THE CHILDREN ARE ABOVE AVERAGE.

The Dallas ISD has a new grading policy, to-wit…
  • Homework grades should be given only when the grades will “raise a student’s average, not lower it.”
  • Teachers must accept overdue assignments, and their principal will decide whether students are to be penalized for missing deadlines.
  • Students who flunk tests can retake the exam and keep the higher grade.
  • Teachers cannot give a zero on an assignment unless they call parents and make “efforts to assist students in completing the work.”

Sounds rather like this, doesn’t it?
