That's lovely, but doesn't actually address the issue at hand.  I can tell you from first hand information that under the old system, we, as parents got much more meaningful information about how our children were doing.[/quote]

That is not my experience. I find the information I'm getting about my child under 2.0 at least as meaningful as the information I got under the old system. And I'm comparing the same teachers at the same school.[/quote]

I just got my first 2.0 interim report card.  I really have no idea how my child is really doing.  Mostly P with a couple of I.  The school basically said they're not giving ES, nobody is getting N.  Not enough granularity.  I have no idea if my child really understands, understands just enough to be proficient, is getting an I, but that's to be expected half way through etc. I don't have any real beef with 2.0, but the report card is terrible.

Under the previous curriculum, I didn't even get an interim report card, and the actual report card just gave O/S/I for each subject. Not much granularity there either...[/quote]

We started in public last year for 4th and they still had grades.  Plus, the math had an overall grade plus subsections.  I've listened to their explanations numerous times, and I think this  ES/P/I/N thing is crap since they don't seem to give ES or N.   I've decided that as long as she seems to be learning I'm just going to go with the flow since grades in elementary don't really matter.[/quote]
