[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My second grader got a significant number of 2s on final report card.  In almost every case, the "grade" in those areas was a 3 last quarter, so this was a surprise.  The teacher hasn't said anything to me about what's going on.  And now the year is over.  How alarmed should I be by year-end 2s?

I don't know if all of the schools use the same grading system.  This is at Campbell, and the kids get a score from 1-4 on lots of different competencies.[/quote]

My son got 1 2 in the first quarter and I freaked out. I would think any 2 should be communicated by the teacher prior to receiving the report card. My son ended up with all 4 and two 3. Email the teacher and get your child up to grade level, how is the child’s behavior? [/quote]

Again I’m so confused as an APS teacher. We were literally told by the county to give pretty much all 2’s in ELA in Q1 as those are all yearlong standards and we hadn’t yet taught the curriculum to even have data on who would be a 3 or 4. Different for math as those are standalone units. So that’s what we did.

*Note that this is changing for next year and will be indicated in the report card that each quarter’s grades reflect the work done in that specific quarter. But that was not the directive this year.[/quote]
