Recently, there have been rumors swirling around about eLearning and grades. These rumors were talking about a student’s grade not going any lower than that at which is was on 3/19 when extended eLearning started. For example, if a student’s grade in a class was 88.53%, the grade couldn’t go any lower than that. However, it’s only true to an extent. This rumor may have caused the thought of not having to do any eLearning, but that’s not the case. In the most recent Kingsmen Nation, Mr. Galiher cleared up these rumors. It was stated that this is only true if students stay up-to-date and engaged with their eLearning. Not doing the work assigned by your teachers can and will still hurt your grade, and can have an impact on your GPA, so it is strongly suggested that students continue to do their work during this time of quarantine.
