I also agree with Warrenite25 that a GPA needs to be part of the solution. A student with A's and B's but an F in an AP or Honors class should be looked at differently that a student with 5 D's and an F. I don't want a student to opt out of an honors or AP class for fear of failing off a team or extracurricular activity. Our policy has been no F's for 3 years and like anything else sometimes we need to revisit our policies to see if changes should be made and how best to make them for the benefit of our students. I hope that now the Administration and the School Committee can get together to find that solution, but as i stated before, I don't believe that solution should be 2 F's.
