[quote=Anonymous]Here is FCPS's grading statement: https://www.fcps.edu/academics/grading-and-reporting/secondary/determining-quarter-and-final-grades Interestingly, it includes the following: "Final grades awarded to students will be A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D, or F. Students may be awarded a higher grade based on trends in and mastery of learning." The latter sentence appears to reference the type of equity grading described above whereby teachers "may" give more weight to a later grade if the trend is up. "May" is not a good approach. Some kids gets "may" get graded this way and receive a higher grade than a traditional or rolling gradebook would suggest, other kids "may' not. It appears to be up to the teacher.[/quote]
