  Case: Is Retesting Ethical?
We have started implementing retests at my school. If students make below a 70, they have the option to retest. Many feel as though a lot of retests would be fluffing the grade, for once they master that standard, we eliminate that low grade and only count the higher one. Is this the right mindset?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe this is a good mindset to have because it gives the students the opportunity to try again and do better.
