[quote=Anonymous]FCPS high schools have had wildly different grade distributions - from each other. Our HS routinely awarded only 3% of students straight A's (unweighted) for any given quarter. Quarter after quarter, year and year. It was easy to track since they published the the All A Honor Roll. Very disheartening since just down the road the grade distribution was vastly different - much greater percentage of A's (without as high a level of SAT scores, college attendance, AP class participation - just not as high of an academic profile and yet the unweighted grade bell curve is vastly different) FCPS has got to normalize their grading system. Oh, but that would mean their achievement gap would be in the spotlight. I feel for their dilemma.[/quote]
