[quote=Anonymous]Madison didn't volunteer to be an early adopter of skills-based grading at the request of Gateway. The administration chose to do this. IMO, principals are under pressure to address equity and by changing the grading system, principals can achieve the results that school board, Gateway, Reid want to see without doing the much harder work of truly addressing equity. I know groups of parents are meeting about this issue trying to figure out what they can do to stop it. If you are against it, consider contacting Meren or instructional services at Gateway. I heard that Reid was putting together a committee to look into this but don't know much about it. Instructional services was supposed to send out a survey on the grading policy, but it hasn't happened yet. Reid needs to hear feedback from parents now, because she is going to make a decision about this one way or the other.[/quote]
