[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually had a kid at Madison. Had because we switched this year to private school and I’m following to see if we need to do the same for my middle schooler. The issue isn’t the grading and how assessments count. The issue is you can’t understand how assessments are graded. You write a paper or take a test and now get a 2.0 or a 3.0 or a 4.0. There was very little to no explanation to where these numbers were coming from. It would be different if there were clear rubrics or points but there were not. Grades seemed subjective with a 3.0/B written on the top of a big test without any clear explanation on why it wasn’t an A or a C. [/quote] It’s insane. Madison was a very good school and it’s being run into the ground by Michelle Reid and Liz Calvert. [/quote]
