Dear Mr Sikisa



Many students in grade 9 feel like their grade will be severely impacted by today’s test because of not enough time given. This will hardly be an accurate representation of the grade many students have worked so hard for. This test plays a major role, and a grading system that deviates from the norm is not good enough. We kindly ask you to offer an optional retest for students to ensure the students get the scores they deserve.

June 8, 2020

I met with the department head this morning to present the current concerns regarding the testing constraints. We are now drafting a formal proposal to outline alternative assessment options for grade 9 students.

June 8, 2020

The volume of support has reached a point where it is impossible for the administration to ignore our request. I am currently drafting a formal letter to Mr. Sikisa outlining our proposal for an optional retest. Expect a follow-up once I have confirmed a time to deliver these documents and meeting materials to his office.

A retest would be appreciated as the time given was not appropriate.

The time frame isn't flexible seeing as how some can experience wifi issues
