Well, from the graded work I'm getting back in math, a P is perfect and an I means that something (no matter how minor) was wrong.  I.e. a label was omitted on a graph so now the that section is an I.  Perhaps it's just an issue w/ the teachers understanding of the new grading system, but A/B/C with percentages gives more granularity since they don't seem to be giving any ES or N scores.[/quote]

Are you getting the work back with just a P or an I on the top, or are the incorrect parts/problems marked?

If you're getting marked work back, then what more information does a P/I vs. A/B/C provide? You're got the marked work; you know what the child did and didn't do right.[/quote]

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.  She's gotten I's when I can't see anything explicitly wrong, or nothing is called out in a BCR.   And it just seems so subjective; miss one label due to carelessness and it's an I? What constitutes proficient? My kids understands exactly what she's doing and makes a careless mistake.  Is that an I?  P?  Who knows? With grades at least you had a general idea where the kids was falling in the spectrum.   Perhaps it's just the current teacher.[/quote]
What spectrum ? And I am seriously not trying to be a smartass, but if you see where your kid is making mistakes, sees what she is doing right or wrong -- what spectrum do you need to see where she falls?
You already have a fairly good idea of what she does and does not know.[/quote]
