Parent: On the matrix, there is "No Data" for this score here.
Me: Yes, I see that. They qualified without the score though.
Parent: We understand. She was sick on the day that section was given, which is why there was no score on the original score sheet. However, she took that section later, and has this supplemental score sheet. :: Hands me the additional paperwork. ::
Me: And so she did.
Parent: We would like you to re-write the matrix with the additional scores.
Me: Why? She qualified without it. The district only takes qualification into consideration - not the matrix score, so there is no benefit.
Parent: We want the scores added anyway.
Me: I'm afraid I'm not going to do that for you. They are qualified as G/T.
Parent: We know she qualified, but we want to tell people that she qualified with a higher score.
