Can a report card mark in highschool be changed???
Hello
So I feel my teacher messed up my final report card mark in first semester.
Am I able to get it changed if I have a legitimate reason?
Thanks

Lady, don't ask us. We don't go to your highschool. Policies vary greatly from school to school. Please speak to your own school's staff.
To be honest, I think you're an idiot and shouldn't be going to University.

AndrewS, pandabearxox all say thanks to Freija for this post.

I'd go see your teacher and talk to him/her. sometimes teachers are even willing to give you a bump if you need it. what do you have to lose?

With the exception of a mathematical error in calculating your grade, I doubt it's actually a "legitimate" reason. I find students and instructors have VERY different opinions on what is legitimate, and students' views tend to favour themselves.

it's a bit late in the term, but you could consider doing an upgrade in night school/e-learning? they usually have pretty short (2-3 week) terms and you can get a better mark.

If there has been a legitimate error, they will fix it. That happened to me in Grade 11 (with a Grade 12 course). I got sick (spent time in hospital), submitted something late and my teacher forgot to mark it. I asked eth school and they had him mark it, raised my course grade 5%
