[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why? At two different schools, the report cards that our kids received containing no letter or numerical grades have usually been somewhere between 8 and 10 pages long, with so much detail about their performance across dozens of specific skills or standards related to study habits/behavior, reading, writing, math, and other subjects. We get a way fuller picture than what a simple letter grade would convey. It's a ton of work for the teachers to prepare thoughtful narratives, and we really appreciate that they do.[/quote] It’s all just smoke up your ass to make you feel better writing that $45k check. I trust the ERB report with IN norms more than some ten page report of platitudes any day. [/quote] Me too, but they also don’t start the ERBs until 3rd grade. So if you want to know how well your kindergartener is reading or doing math or playing with friends, these longer report cards are much more informative.[/quote]
