Not bad, thought Lauren's mother, Lauren Asbury, especially considering that her daughter never attended the school.
"She doesn't go to Sherwood," explained Mrs. Asbury. "She goes to Good Counsel High School."
Lauren, who lives in Olney, has never attended Sherwood High School in Sandy Spring, but that hasn't stopped teachers she's never met from giving her high marks.
Two of the four teachers at Sherwood whose classes Lauren never attended gave her A's anyway, according to the Sept. 26 progress report school officials recently mailed home.
"It was kind of funny at first," Mrs. Asbury said. "But then it's really scary when you think about it. I mean, if they thought my daughter was really going to school there, then why didn't anybody call me?"
Even more troublesome, Mrs. Asbury added, is that teachers are giving out grades to students who don't show up.
"She did get an incomplete grade in physics," Mrs. Asbury said. "At least the physics teacher got it right."
