[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate standards based grading.”Meets” strikes me as a synonym for “competent” or “adequate”. I wish there was something equivalent to an A my kids could strive for. When I ask my 4th grader to review and correct his mistakes on papers he brings home, he balks because he “already got a Meets”.

I feel like middle school is going to be a rough adjustment. [/quote]

At least some of the APS middle schools (most? All?) use SBG. However, for report cards they convert those standards back into grades. [/quote]

Swanson does not.  Not sure about others.[/quote]
We still get letter grades from Gunston[/quote]

Yes, on the report card, but grades throughout the year on each assignment are SBG. [/quote]

Is this true? I mean DS is at Gunston and he seems to get letter grades? if I look in grade book it will give me a % with a letter grade and his individual assignments say things like 9/10 or whatever. [/quote]
