Yeah, it helps a LOT that it wouldn't materially change anything for E if her score changed. And I do actually think this has been a good lesson for her, as you note, in self-advocacy and getting past herself to figure out what was going on, and all that :)
Heh, when Awesome Teacher talked to me about it she said, "I said to myself, 'wow, I must be a really great teacher!'" But her point was that she's not doing anything with this class that anyone else couldn't do -- she's literally going through a textbook with them and giving them very-low-key assessments every weeks. (She IS a great teacher who has a special gift for running with the kids' interests and digging more deeply, but she hasn't been able to do that with this particular class because they've needed so much foundational work.)
