[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's maddening. I was willing to give skills-based grading a chance, but my child went from an A to a D once they "not for grading"-ed out a bunch of their assignments. They should not have had an A to begin with given some of their lower grades, and to hit us with a D at the end of the quarter is crazymaking. This system is giving me no useful information about how they are progressing in a class until it's too late to do anything about it.[/quote] That is really frustrating as well and new for this year. Last year the teachers were careful from the beginning to put things in as not for grading. You now have to recalculate the grade yourself to figure out what is going on, which is easy for some classes but not for others. I don’t know why they even enter the grades that don’t count. It doesn’t tell the student or parent anything useful. [/quote]
