[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually prefer standards-based grading because it gives more targeted information and feedback. Our current school does traditional letter grades and our former school did standards-based. [/quote] What I’ve read is that most SBG policies have “exceeds expectations,” but not APS. And all the comments at our school are largely a copy and paste job. I’d be fine w SBG if it had exceed expectations but middle school should have traditional A, B, C, D, F. [/quote] APS middle schools do have traditional letter grades. [/quote] Gunston has SBG and the idea is to roll it out to other schools. [/quote] It’s fine for ES. Not MS. In MS kids need to get prepared for HS, and SBG isn’t going to get them there. Also, our school still does exceeds expectations, at least they did last quarter. Is that going away? [/quote] If you’re school has it then you’re not at a SBG school. [/quote]
