Synopsis
|
Grievant's object to the pass/fail grading system and feel it is counterproductive for teachers and students alike. Grievance denied: discretionary administrative policy not per se violative of school law or policy is not a proper subject for adjudication by the Grievance Board even though the class of teachers affected by the policy objects to its use. Grievants have failed to establish a legal basis for which to grant the relief they request.
