[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be fair, what criteria were teachers ever really given in the past to assign an A or a B or a C?

I have no problem with the new report cards. I can tell what progress my son is making because I can see it in his homework and his increased reading and math abilities. It seems like the report cards are making some parents uncomfortable because they can't tell if their child is doing well anymore. The conference with the teacher, and the level of homework being done at home, should answer that question for them.[/quote]

What school does your child attend because I would like to move to your neighborhood?  My attends a school in Potomac.  His homework is next to none.  No reading material or info. to let me know what reading level he is on and the type of work he is doing at school.  The math homework is obsurd (a sudoku type assignment last night).  There is nothing that indicates any amount of progress my child is making this year.

I'm sure most kids in the county could pass state levels of proficiency at the beginning of the school year.  State levels are pretty low.  What about making sure kids are actually progessing in new material and concepts?  That's really what matters and is being ignored.[/quote]
